I may have had a raging headache — induced by lack of both sleep and food — but I’ll be damned if I didn’t zip up my mansuit (Philmont reference) and do my best to make pictures at the 2011 Atlantic League All-Star Game on Wednesday.
Just a few shots from the day:

Recent York Catholic graduate Alex Tucci warms up before going up to bat for his turn in the home run derby on Wednesday, July 13, 2011, at Sovereign Bank Stadium before the 2011 Atlantic League All-Star Game. Each team in the home run derby included one recent York County high school graduate, one York County townball player and one Atlantic League player. Tucci, who made two fair homeruns and hit a foul ball over the fence, was the only recent graduate to hit out of the field.

I was editing and transmitting photos when the fireworks show began, and had no intention to make pictures of the show. Once it began, though, I couldn’t resist leaving my computer and going to the front of the media room with my camera. I didn’t have a tripod, and was basically holding my camera steady on the open window ledge, but hey — it worked.
