Double-Headers?

[lambeauleap87]

Hey guys, I was planning on heading to Akron tomorrow to do some 'graphing and just found out tonight was rained out. That means tomorrow will be a double-header...gates open at same time and all that jazz, so I don't think it's a huge deal. Never seen a DH before, so I'm not really sure how it works...is that better or worse for 'graphing, or is there no change? I didn't know if there was another opportunity for getting autographs or if it just sucks all around, so I figured I'd ask. Any opinions or experiences?

I find it better. Double check that the gates don't open early.

You will get a chance to graph pre-game for game 1, then they normally will do a 30-45 min break, then the game 2 players (Normally different from game 1) will come out and do a quick warm-up and "should" graph as normal. If you're targeting a few specific guys you get two shots pre-game.

I have a doubleheader Saturday as well in Trenton I just found out, so best of luck to both of us!

Thanks! It was supposed to be a 7:05 game (gates at 6:00) but became two seven inning games, gates opening at 5:00 for a 6:05 first pitch. Sole purpose of the night is to get Manny Machado, so hopefully things work out!
