Shea: Calm before the Storm

by Matthew Cerrone on September 25th, 2008 at 5:36 pm

I’m back sitting in the dugout after having watched batting practice.  The player’s equiptment is in place, the water jugs are filled, and the players and reporters have filed into the clubhouse as Ed Coleman and Kevin Burkhardt wrap up their pregame interviews.

Howard Johnson jogged by, said excuse me, and continued on in to the clubhouse, while looking quite confused by me just sitting here smiling.

I am flanked by Moises Alou in street clothes on one side and Brian Schneider‘s equiptment bag on the other.

I love this time of day, as I think I wrote last time.

It’s like the calm before the storm, with the lights on, and a cool positivity in the air.
