285/366 (Part 2) The Giants and Cardinals line up for the anthem before Game 1 of the NLCS in San Francisco at AT&T Park. Yes, that’s Jose Feliciano on the scoreboard in the distance. He sang the national anthem, just as he did for opening night at Miami’s Marlins Park. (Taken with Instagram)

284/366 Willie Mays looks to the heavens after presumably hitting one toward them. His statue outside of AT&T Park, as it greeted me this morning following a cross-country trip from DC to San Francisco for the start of the NLCS. There is a quote nearby from Bankhead, and it says something like: the world has only ever had two geniuses, Willie Mays and Willie Shakespeare. I like that. (Taken with Instagram)
