Angels @ Dodgers 04-03-2010

Today was the last pre-season game for the Dodgers and my first time using the new lens I bought to help take my photography to the next level. Unfortunately, when you're poor and can't afford the $300 per game seats or don't have press credentials, you may end up behind a net, which 99% of these subjects are behind. Other than that, I can easily tell that this lens is much better than it's predecessor (the old Nikon 70-200 2.8 that I rented for two weeks last year) and much much better than the lens I have been using to this point. Was extremely disappointed that many of the Dodgers best players didn't play today. Like my favorite, Andre Ethier, Casey Blake, Manny Ramirez, and Rafael Furcal. And another really odd thing is they used designated hitters in a National League ball park. Maybe that's normal in spring training, I don't know.
