Pre-game at the ballpark

While I was preparing to photograph the Orioles-Athletics game I heard a group of fans behind me moving around excitedly. Moments later Ryan Noda from the A’s came over and patiently signed autographs, posed for selfies and talked with fans. The scene took me back to being a kid when meeting a Major Leaguer was huge moment and it was great to see Ryan taking time to make these kids day at the ballpark so special.
