Hey Ben, I've got season tickets for the M's this year. You'll be in Safeco plenty of times...you gonna come up big for a true fan and sign my copy of your CD?
Hit one into the right field seats for me too, that's where I'm sitting...just make it a solo blast so you don't win.... :)
Good luck this season!!! But you need to come back to Cleveland one day and perform at the House of Blues...god it'd be great to have you back as part of the Cleveland Indians...we all miss you!!! Take care & have a productive week!!!
I'm so sad I wont get to see you play in Cleveland in May. My military deployment got moved up to April, so I'm going to miss your games. :( I was really looking forward to it. I hope you play well and hopefully someone will let me know how your games went. Miss you out here in Ohio.
Hey Ben, its to bad seeing you go to the rivals of the Mariners, even though youwerent a every player when you did play u had the clutch hits and your defense was awesome and ur a good left handed hitter, and it seems that the Mariners always let go the important players that get the job done when they dont play everyday and such, hope you come back to the mariners after ur contract with the rangers, have a good Season
We're eager for the new season, too! Jenn is going to be my weekend guest Memorial Day weekend when you guys play the Tribe and we are going to come see you play!
