Shooter's Comments:

This took me by surprise, obviously. I was on my way out of the dugout and headed for the car, when I heard the PA announcer say she'd won a marriage proposal. I turned around, pulled the camera from my shoulder and got what I could. This would have been much better from the other direction, to get her reaction. Maybe next time the TinCaps will let me know, in advance.
