Bonnie got in on May 27th, the first game of an eight-game home stand against the Sacramento River Cats and the Las Vegas 51s. We’d planned this out so she could have a good week with me before heading back home. I was planning to propose to her on Wednesday, the 29th, the second game of the stand, because that was the day the photographer was free and, according to the weather forecast, things looked promising for outdoor activity.
I met Bonnie at the airport with flowers. She met me with a hot yellow dress. Her aunt, who lived in the Portland area, drove me to pick Bonnie up and immediately regretted it as we started making out within seconds. We must have necked at least a hundred times before we finally made it to my room. It was pathetic, but it was absolutely what the doctor ordered, and we probably would have spent more time testing the waters of temptation if Chip’s family wasn’t at the apartment.
I waited until the last minute to leave Bonnie for the ballpark. After discussing where to pick up tickets from will call, where to sit in the wives section, and where to wait post-game, I decided she would be okay without me and gathered up my things for the park. Then, the instant the game was over, I rushed into the locker room in an effort to make a quick getaway and rejoin her. However, while I was stripping down, Abby pulled me aside.
“We’re gonna start ya on this Wednesday. You okay with that?” he asked.
“Uh, yeah,” I said robotically, thinking about the prospect of picking up a start on the same day I was planning to propose. “Of course I’m okay with that.” Starting can be a real mind-bender if you’re used to the pen, where life is lived on the spur of the moment. Starting gives you time to think about how things can go, all the what-ifs and happenings you can’t control. I felt my mind sag under the weight of both a start and a proposal. I thought about telling Abby I might not be in the right frame of mind for a start, but I’d already given him all he wanted to hear, and then there was the golden rule of baseball reminding me to be thankful for the opportunity lest I never get one again.
