Played Madden NFL 22 | Played as Las Vegas Raiders and Blew out Cleveland Browns | RIP John Madden

I played Madden NFL 22 on December 29, 2021, the day after Legendary John Madden Passed away at age 85. I played as the Las Vegas Raiders who used to play in Oakland. I felt it was appropriate for me to play as the Raiders as John Madden was Linebacker Coach for the Oakland Raiders between 1967 and 1968 and then became the head coach for them from 1969 - 1978. It was actually my 2nd time playing this game at the rookie difficulty level and I was able to blow out the Cleveland Browns 37 to 0 to bring the Raiders to 500.

Matt Olson Home Run at Angel Stadium 3-18-21

Cashless System Goes Down at Coors Field | Rockies CJ Cron Hits Walk off Home Run to beat Padres

I took a trip to Denver Colorado to see the San Diego Padres play against the Colorado Rockies on August 16, 2021. Like usual, I got to Coors Field early to attend batting practice which we got to see the tail end of Rockies BP and see the Padres take BP after. I was able to get a ball that was hit off a fungo bat from a coach in center field. Before the game, I went to order some food so that I could avoid the long lines that have usually happened during the game due to a nationwide shortage of staff. Beginning 2021, Major League Baseball along with most major league sports in the US went to a cashless system only allowing credit cards. Unfortunately the cashless credit card system went down so they were not able to sell any food and drink. Fortunately they did get it back up for a few minutes so I was able to order my food before the game started. The Cashless Credit card systems were up and down during the entire game based what I heard from other fans. Some lucky fans even got free food and drink as they wanted to get rid of it before it went bad. San Diego was trailing for most of the game but Trent Grisham hit a 3 run home run in the top of the 9th to tie the game but San Diego lost in the bottom of the 9th when Rockies CJ Cron hit a walk off home run. There was another home run that was hit by Rockies player Charlie Blackman in the bottom of the 3rd.

Dodgers Huge Comeback Win With a Will Smith Walk off Home Run | Dodgers Vs Giants Game 7-20-21

The Dodgers were playing the Giants on July 20, 2021. It was the second game of the four game series. The Giants had a 6-1 lead going into the 6th inning but the Dodgers were able to come from behind to beat the Giants 8-6 with a Will Smith 3 Run Walk off home run in the bottom of the ninth inning. Chris Taylor also had a huge night of hitting two home runs. Both of which came within 30 feet of me. I was glad to be at the game the the Dodgers won. They unfortunately went onto lose lose this series with 1 win and 3 losses which increased the Giants lead in the National League West. The Giants currently have the best record in Major League Baseball. So far the Dodgers have won every regular season games of the six regular Dodger games I have ever been to since I went to my First Dodger game back in 2006. I have been to 5 post season Dodger home games and their record with me attending is 3 wins and 2 losses. Both losses happened during the 2019 NLDS when they were eliminated by the Washington Nationals in Game 5.

Reno Aces Vs Las Vegas Aviators at Greater Nevada Field 7-10-21 | First Ever Minor League Baseball

I went to a Reno Aces Vs Las Vegas Aviators AAA Baseball game on July 10, 2021. It was a hot day with temperatures hovering around 100 degrees Fahrenheit. I just drove up to Reno from San Francisco that day after watching a Giants Nationals game at Oracle Park where the temperature was almost 40 degrees cooler. I had great experience at the game with seats behind home plate. The Reno Aces were taking a 2-1 lead into the 9th inning but the Las Vegas Aviators ended up tying the game and taking the game to extra inning and winning 7-3.

Shohei Ohtani Pillow Night and Birthday at Angel Stadium | Los Angeles Angels Vs the Boston Red Sox

I went to the Los Angeles Angels Vs Boston Red Sox game on 7/5/2021. It was Shohei Ohtani Pillow Night as well as his birthday. There were a lot of fans that arrived early to get one of the only 14,000 pillows that they were giving away at the stadium. Batting Practice was packed as a result. Shohei Ohtani could have had the biggest night of his career with a walk-off win but unfortunately he grounded out for the final out for the Angels 5-4 loss against the Red Sox. Fortunately, the Angels went on to win the next two games to win the series.

Orioles Pitcher Isaac Mattson tossed me a ball at Angel Stadium durning BP & Fireworks show 7-3-21

I went to the Angels Vs Orioles game at Angel Stadium on Saturday night July 3rd. As usually, I got there early to see if I could get any balls during batting Practice. It actually turned out being a good night for me. I got 3 baseballs by one of the Angel Stadium Ushers and 2 Baltimore Orioles Players. Also the Angels beat the Orioles 4-1 and the Fireworks after the game were spectacular.

Ran Into Zack Hample's Friend at a Packed Braves Vs Dodgers Game in Atlanta

Went to a Braves Vs Dodgers Game at Truist Park in Atlanta. I happened to run into one of Zack Hample's best friends Gregg who recently caught a Shohei Ohtani game home run ball in Florida when the Angels played the Blue Jays. The stadium was packed to capacity which I have not experienced since going to the Dodgers Vs Nationals NLDS Game 5 in 2019 as most stadiums I have been going to have had limited capacity due to Covid.
