Last night was the first game of the 2011 Atlantic League Freedom Division playoffs. The York Revolution will be playing best-of-5 against the Lancaster Barnstormers.

Here’re two shots I have of starting pitcher Corey Thurman in two very different circumstances.
Sweat in the third inning:

Rain (and maybe some sweat) in the sixth inning:

The Revolution won last night’s game 3-2. I’m shooting tonight’s game, as well, and hoping for no rain.
Nice !
