By the time this shot was taken, it was almost 8pm, so the light was getting weak.  It was a rough outing for our boys in blue and white.  In this shot, the pitcher fooled my gr-grandson as well as his catcher, because the ball ended up at his feet.

I was seated about 3ft from the fence.  This image is cropped top and bottom, but is uncropped horizontally.  I was well satisfied with the result, and expect it to do even better in brighter light.
