7/6: Enjoys summer travels "It was a great, great experience..  Not many people get the opportunity to take a two-month, all-expenses-paid trip to Alaska just to play baseball. It was a lot of fun. [A teammate] and I stayed with a great family. They made us dinner even though we didn't get home sometimes until 11 p.m. or later. Just great people. They made it a great experience.. It was hard to sleep because it doesn't get dark..  We'd sleep late or take naps during the day. On off days, we'd go fishing and just relax.. The weather was great.. It was about 80 degrees and sunny, not too hot. And it hardly ever rained. We didn't have a rainout. But we did have a 'sunout.' The sun was so bright one day that a couple of people had trouble seeing, so they called the game. Iove never seen anything like that."
