A few more photos from Dow Diamond.

Last night's Great Lakes Loons game was great. The unseasonably cool weather we've been experiencing for the past few weeks finally gave way and some unseasonably warm weather came to town just in time for the Loons to welcome the Peoria Chiefs, the low-A affiliate of the Chicago Cubs. The Chiefs are coached by Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg. I shot the game last night and thought I would share a few of the photos here.



Here is Ryne Sandberg coaching third base. I have to give it to the guy, too, because he looks like he could still step in and play the game.





This is a photo of Joe Becker sliding into home with Preston Mattingly right on his heels. Loons manager Juan Bustabad plays a great style of ball with runners moving a lot. This is the sort of photo I'll probably get to shoot pretty frequently this year.





This is just a nice-looking swing by first baseman Jaime Ortiz.





This is Jordan Latham, a pitcher for the Chiefs. I just liked the way this photo came out.





Joe Becker plays shortstop for the Loons. I know he's already shown sliding into home above, but like Latham's photo above, I just like the way this one came out.
