It was great day to be a Buenos Aires Shankees fan!
Your Boys of Summer battled the talented Venzuelans of Los Cardinales to a cliff hanger in the 9th! A great day at the ballpark, fans, and whadda finish!
Supporters were out in record force for beautiful fall weather and the new digs at Shankee Stadium were a hit. Fan Laura C. brought the team a box of brand new baseballs all the way from from N. AMERICA ...reminding us all how important it is for US ALL to help the team with BADLY needed equipment.
Off the field, the star was El Tejano, himself! The Buenos Aires Salsa Man was out in front of the fine concessions facilities, regaling fans from all over the world with tall-tales, history, lies, jokes, hilarious general commentary ...and fanning the flames of the finest example of Texas BBQ Argentina has seen since Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid split in 1905!
Your humble correspondent has eaten BBQ all around the world and the Gulf of Mexico ...but never have I eaten such perfectly grilled and sauced beef ribs ever in my life. Truly, truly, truly. El Tejano was on the scene 5 hours before chow time ...to ensure that good grass-fed Argentine beef was brought to the pinacle of perfection. As they say, you had to be there!
What to do with all that beef? Just pick it up and eat it! ...or grab an ice-cold beer and have the man pull it and mince it and sauce it and slap it on those indescribably luscious Tortillas de Pancho Villa. Kilos of authentic corn tortillas from the original Aztec recipe vanished ...as many discovered them for the first time.
With bellies full, fans of all ages topped it off with Buenos Aires' very best cookies and brownies from Frank Almeida's Sugar & Spice. What a hit with young and old of all nationalities! Someone was kind enough to hide the last brownie so that I could report to you just how wonderful they are. Wow, the best!
STAY TUNED FOR POST-SEASON PLAY AT BEAUTIFUL SHANKEE STADIUM ...AND DON´T FORGET TO DONATE EQUIPMENT AND COLD HARD CASH TO OUR BUENOS AIRES SHANKEES!
See ya there!
