The Spokane Indians, a Single A affiliate of the Texas Rangers, play at Avista Stadium, which was built 1958 and is adjacent to the Spokane Interstate Fairgrounds. It is an older stadium, but it does have a row of skyboxes around the top. We were a little late, because we didn't realize that the game started at 6:30pm. Spokane has the highest attendance in the Northwest League. Tonight, a Wednesday, there were 3,371 in attendance. The Brett Brothers, including George Brett who played for Kansas City, are the principal owners. Tonight they played the Tri-City Dust Devils. It was a good game with the Indians being the winners 5-2. The box score was Tri-City R-2, H-8, E-2 and Indians R-5, H-8, E-2. The field lines are RF 335, RC-365, CF-398, LC-368, LF-335. The mascot is Otto the dinosaur. Otto is wearing medical scrubs for a race where two boys had to put on medical clothing. Everyone in the section where we were sitting was the recipient of a Texaco or Shell antenna ball because our bird, the ostrich, won the run around the bases.
