Summer’s going fast
My son and I went to see our last Sounds game of the year Sunday evening at Greer Stadium. The home team won 7-2. It was our seventh Sounds game of the year. They were 3-4 in the games we saw, which is consistent with their overall winning percentage. Lots of autographs. Lots of pictures.
