While others were taking advantage of the meet & greet C.J. & I headed down to the field to watch the Dodgers take batting practice. The stadium gates were not open yet so there were only a few people in the stadium at the time.

Here's Matt Kemp taking his swings during BP
Here is a picture of Andre Ethier getting his swings in
James Loney getting tips from hitting coach Jeff Pentland
After his group was done Ethier headed into the dugout to get his glove so he could shag balls in the outfield. Just as he got to the dugout we asked if he could sign some stuff for us.
Andre signing C.J.'s LA Times Magazine
Just after he signed my ball
C.J.'s autographed magazine...we'll just say she was extremely happy for the rest of the day!
Here's my baseball...C.J. kept pointing out that her autograph said "Think Blue!"
We both had Matt Kemp & James Loney autographs and didn't want to be greedy so C.J. got her picture taken with Loney. She didn't want me to put it up on the blog though. She didn't like the way she looked. Women!! haha.
The trip itself was a lot of fun. We'll see if I can make it out there again next year. I will post more pics and some pics from my trip last year too.

Great photos and the Andre Ethier sig on the LA Magazine cover was a super idea.
