Overheard on an Upcoming Episode This Summer ...
Guy: So, do you come here often?
Girl: Yeah, if I had 35,000 computers on when tickets went on sale and about $35 grand to spend funding this bloated payroll I would... Einstein...
Guy: Hey, sorry, just trying to get the conversation going as I only have two more outs to go with you and I'm not even at first base [laughing] ...
Girl: You're barely in the batter's box buddy...
Guy: Seriously, what's a girl like you doing in a nice place like this?
Girl: [turns and smirks]
Guy: Anyway, I heard the Sox are getting close to signing J.D. Drew ...
Girl: I heard that over the All-Star break, but I think they're still working on some contract language issues. The Sox don't seem to be worried, and besides if Wily Mo muscles up a single here, he's going to go over the Mendoza line for the first time all season ...
Guy: Speaking of Wily Mo, I've got two tickets for Bronson Arroyo's concert at the Paradise in October, you want to go with me? ...
Girl: Easy there Carl Crawford, let's see if Alex Cora can get his bat on the ball before you try to score from first ...
Guy: Well it's not like there's going to be anything else going on here in October [both laughing] ... hey can I borrow $12.00 for a cup of Miller Lite?
Girl: Sure, and can you get me a couple more Fenway Franks while you're up?
Guy: You got it, but I'm not sure I'll have time for the lines as I see they have Chris House lined up to meet you next inning ... so I guess this is it ... maybe we can catch a game at Game On sometime since neither of us will probably ever get tickets again? ...
Girl: Sure, this was fun, here's my e-mail, give me a call sometime, it was nice meeting you ...
Guy: It was nice meeting you too Britney...
