The Raptors played
at 5:30PM on June 25th, 2009 under dark clouds with occasional rain.
So the light conditions were pretty lousy for sports ...
although it results in a kinda nifty saturated look.
I bumped ISO to 1600, but could only get 1/400 second shutter speed,
plus it's a bit of a reach with the
Canon 55-250
telephoto lens shooting from outside the fence in center field.
This particular game was a "walkfest" as the other team's
pitchers has control issues (hats off to the ump who had
kept good concentration in this slow paced game) although the
kids still had fun.
This ended up being a strike - interesting how high the pitch arcs
Bambino's "crushing" double to left-center ... two days later, he hit a home run!
Snake high-steps away from an inside pitch
Tulo, Albert, Sultan, Kyle, and Pudge at the plate
