niki @ diamondbacks baseball game = jinxed

Thursday, April 29, 2004
I probably shouldn't ever attend another Diamondbacks home game, again. Ever.

I don't remember how many I've been to, maybe five or six, but I don't think they've ever won a game that I've attended.

I must be jinxed. I mean, the previous two games in the series, they smacked the Cubs down like flies. The Cubs lost, by a lot.

But last night... final score was 4-3, Cubs.
It probably didn't help that the only points scored were by the same player, all three single home runs... by Steve Finley.

I was even at the game a year or two back where the Dbacks were absolutely spanked (I forget which team they played), 20 - 1. That's the famous game where Mark Grace pitched an inning. And for those of you who don't know, Grace was our first baseman.

So how can I not think I'm jinxed, at least with them? Coyotes hockey doesn't fare much better.. I think they may have won once in the less than 10 games I think I've attended. That's not a very good ratio.

I think the only sports team that has one more than one game that I attended was Mustangs Hockey (IHL). But after them, it was just all downhill.

On a side note, though, Josh & I both swear we saw Wayne Gretzky walking through the food court breezeway when we first got there. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't, but it surely looked like him!
