Baseball Trip Replay - Day 40 - July 2, 1994

July 2 - John and I went to lunch in an area not unlike the Village in Houston or downtown Los Gatos or University Village in Seattle. Lots of little shops with lots of college students running around. The rest of the afternoon, I took care of some paperwork and then I went to the game.

Three Rivers Stadium is one of the cookie-cutter, circular stadiums from the sixties, and it was very familiar. The game was delayed half an hour by rain, but once it started, it didn't rain any more. Cincinnati clobbered Pittsburgh 8-1. It wasn't pretty.

The area is Oakland, which is between U.Pittsburgh and Carnegie Mellon. Not sure, but I think we went to "The O", i.e., "The Original Hot Dog Shop". For baseball fans, it opened in 1960 for the World Series in nearby Forbes Field.
