Where in the world is Riley Shih Tzu? This week we decided to take in a baseball game! As you may know, we are Mariner fans, heck we love Seattle teams in general. But guess what? Riley is not in Seattle… but we were able to catch up with the Mariners!
I’m not too sure if you can tell from the background, but this baseball stadium opened to much fanfare in 1992!
If you guessed we were at Camden Yards home of the Baltimore Orioles then you are right!! And it was here in 1993 that Mariner’s Ken Griffy Jr., during the MLB All-Star Game, hit a home run which hit the B&O Warehouse that runs along Eutaw Street. He is the only player ever to do so! So it’s great to be here and experience a little bit of Mariner history.
When at baseball games I have a love of seating slightly left of home plate, visitors side, just under the canopy. To me this is a prime spot for the game, and safe of any stray foul balls. It was a warm day in Baltimore that day but it turned into a beautiful evening. Riley enjoyed watching the game, and then after a while it became a little too slow for her.

We have been looking up things to do with Rae and a baseball game would be amazing! The closest to us would probably be Pittsburgh and lucky for us we have family there! Definitely going to look into this. Thanks for sharing!
Every season we have these great intentions of getting tickets for the Washington National games, and every year we blow it 🙁 Looks like you all had a blast.

LOVE baseball, but I have actually been as bored at a game as Riley appears – so I get it. Busch Stadium usually holds a Pooches in the Park Day sometime in June. I never was able to take my pup, but it looks like fun.
My son and daughter in law take Thor, their rescued Boxer every year to the Houston Atros game on dog day. He has so much fun and so do they. I wanted to post a pic of him sitting in his seat (He’s a big dude.) but I don’t see an option to post a pic. I think Riley is having a lot of fun. And I agree, Baseball can be a little boring. I am a football gal.
You are a supa-star!
