Deanna Tours the Hit It Here Cafe
Mariners vs. Tigers July 14, 2007

1 2 3

There are pictures of 500-HR hitters around the walls of the big open sportsbar in back of the indoor half. These are the "still active" hitters -- Sosa, Bonds, and Palmeiro.

I had to go hunt down the Mike Schmidt picture. It was right next to the bar.

View of the field as you're looking out from that bar.

And a view of the bar.

View of the outdoor half of the Hit it Here Cafe, from the back, just as I've crossed between sides.

A barrel by the far side entry, with a typical restaurant "Hostess Will Seat You" sign.

View of the outdoor reserved seats in the cafe. You can apparently go eat dinner there before the game starts without a reserved ticket, but you have to be out of the reserved areas by 30 minutes before gametime -- that's when the reserved tickets kick in.

"Sugoi Ippatsu" - "Great home run" shown on the board after Kenji Johjima hit a grand slam.

View of the board as it also said "Funk Blast".

View of the scoreboard as JJ Putz was coming out.

People waving their workout shirts, the giveaway for this game.

Game over, the Mariners win, and the cafe is emptying out.
