Aggie Baseball

With the addition of A&M to the SEC, we have been fortunate to see many Aggie sporting events in person this year even though we are no longer in Texas. Aggie baseball played the Tennessee series here in Knoxville this year. Our A&M club joined up with a club from North Carolina and we tailgated before the Saturday (final game in series) game. A&M had already taken the series by winning the Thursday and Friday games. Unfortunately A&M lost the final game to sweep the series, but we all had a great time and met lots of great Aggies.

The baseball field has an awesome playground which is great when kids cannot sit still for 3-4 hours!

Olsen Field at Blue Bell Park

This past off season, our baseball stadium received a huge makeover/renovation....in more ways than one. We went from Olsen Field to Olsen Field at Blue Bell Park. The stadium was completely renovated and while I am an Old Ag, I have to say that the new ball park looks amazing!

This past week, Hayden and I had the opportunity to take a tour of the new facility. I cannot describe how awesome the stadium is now. We unfortunately have not been able to attend a game yet this season (I was practically on bed rest while pregnant and now we have little Hayden) but I know when we do, it will be a fun outing. The new stadium even has a playground area for the kids.  I think this will be great when Taryne cannot sit still for the entire length of a baseball game.

I took a few pics with my phone while on the tour...

Thanks to my good friend Mindy for giving me the opportunity to see the stadium!

Until next time...Gig'em!
