My 756 Video

I was going to wait to post this in the comments for tomorrow's inevitable 756 group thread, but MAN, y'all, I am so freaking jazzed right now I decided to go ahead and slap it up tonight. My apologies for pre-empting anyone else with photos or video from the game.  This the view from sec. 315, row 13, seat 19.

Like I put in the YouTube description...sorry about the shaky camera work there at the end.  I was a little excited.

Re: My 756 Video
Awesome, man. Thanks for sharing. And the camera shaking wasn't that bad. :)

Re: My 756 Video
God bless the Internet!  Somewhere out there, Pedro Gomez has rolled up his sleeves and is doing some real reporting.  

"So tell us Pedro, what was the fan reaction?"
"Well, you see....ummmm...Barry violated my anus tonight and I'm terribly verklempt.  Why don't you have a peek at this video I stole from YouTube.  For ESPN 8, this is Pedro Gomez, from Emeryville, signing off."

Omar says, "Dammit gaffer! Bring in a few defenders, a mid-fielder or two, and nice pull w/Alan Smith."

Re: My 756 Video
Wow, thanks for sharing. I loved showing the entire AB: the slow build-up and the huge climax :D.

Re: My 756 Video
I thought about just cutting to the money shot, but you really need to see all the whole thing (foul balls and all)
 to get a feel for the crowd atmosphere.  Although at the time I felt like it was the longest at-bat I've ever sat through.

Re: My 756 Video
As with any good amateur video, the money shot is pretty worthless without the five to ten minutes of clumsy POV that precedes it.

(btw, jokes aside, love the video)

Re: My 756 Video
That was almost like watching it again (don't worry about the shaking because the whole stadium was shaking).  My seat was Section 311, row 5, seat 20.

Good Job.  All I got was some pretty crummy shots from my cellphone.

Re: My 756 Video
This is awesome ... first time I've seen it rather than hear it. Very cool.

Re: My 756 Video
This was very cool.  Captures the excitement better than any TV shot.
Bold Prediction: Klesko will finish the 2007 season with at least 20 HRs. (OPS+ is 129 as of 7/1/07)
