New York State Bakers Gathered To See The Amazings Crush The Cubs at Our Annual Event At Citifield

And We Were There To Cheer For Our Board Of Directors As They Stood At Home Plate To Kick Off The Festivities.

It was a beautiful summer evening as we came together to enjoy good food, drinks and friends. The choices of food are varied and fairly extensive.

Bring your credit card as they are also fairly expensive.

The pork platter may be $27.00, but it does come with TWO Sides after all.

At least the beer is reasonable.

Perhaps if your last name happens to be Gates.

Soon the Bakers and Friends began to arrive.

The Met's pitching retired the Cubs quickly. When our team came up there was a single followed by a Home Run. Two to zip and time to sit back,enjoy the game,relax, talk, and eat.

Unfortunately, the Cubs scored in two successive innings and the score was tied. Time to be a little concerned.

Top of the 8th and the Cubs get another run. It is now 3 to 2.

The Mets tried to rally in the last two innings but fell short. While disappointed, there were still smiles all around.

Time to say good night and head for home.

By the way, we stated that we came to see the Mets crush the Cubs. We never said it actually happened.

Quiz

Did you notice that there were several

Strawberry 18 jerseys?

Why would that be?

Well, our President, Nick Stork, got them for each attendee in our group, and we will wear them proudly.

For those of you who are unaware of who he is:

Darryl Eugene Strawberry, a star right fielder and author, played 17 seasons.. Throughout his career, Strawberry was one of the most feared sluggers in the sport, known for his prodigious home runs and his intimidating presence in the batter's box with his 6 ft 6 in frame and his long, looping swing.

Strawberry, who was nicknamed The Straw Man or Straw, helped lead the New York Mets to a World Series championship in 1986 and the New York Yankees to two World Series championships in 1996 and 1999. A popular player during his career, Strawberry was voted to the All-Star Game eight straight times from 1984 to 1991.

Strawberry was formerly an analyst for SportsNet New York. His memoir, Straw: Finding My Way, was published in April 2009.

As we long time Met fans are used to saying,

"Wait till next year"
