I don't recall if I'd ever been to an MLB game before last week, when my dad took my brother and I to see the Diamondbacks vs. the Yankees here in Phoenix. My parents have Dbacks season tickets and are big fans. Somewhere around the 4th inning, there was an animated car race, Jiffy Lube vs Pennzoil vs Quaker State. There was a herd of folks in Jiffy Lube shirts about four rows down from us, but Pennzoil won. Later, there was an even better race - animated hot dogs bouncing around a baseball diamond, each one representing one of ketchup, mustard, or relish. I found myself hollering "Ketchup! Ketchup!!" much to my own surprise and goofy glee - and fortunately, ketchup won, or I'd have felt even dorkier than I already did. It was great fun.

Are singles games expensive? I'd go to another game sometime, even though part of the fun is eating ballpark food, which is outrageously expensive. :)
