Rainbow Baseball

There are many advantages of living so close to the University of Hawaii. Not only is it a beautiful park-like campus, but there’s always a conference or seminar, a free concert, various sporting events, art exibits, theatrical plays, and a number of other events to attend.

Yesterday I walked over to the Les Murakami Stadium on campus and watched the University of Hawaii Rainbow baseball team play in their annual Easter Tournament. While I was somewhat disappointed that I had forgotten to bring my camera, it was great to be at the stadium amongst the crowd.

There is always something soothing about being at the ballpark. While football and basketball may be more appealing to watch on television, nothing beats an afternoon at the stadium watching a baseball game. All the senses are uniquely treated in ways that only attending a baseball game can offer. Those that say the game moves too slow are missing the point. There is always something unfolding, whether it be on the field or in the stands.

Oh by the way, the Rainbows won!
