3x World Series Champs!!!

Wow, what a run this year!  I felt like we were the best team in baseball and then the worst team in baseball, and then who knows what.  Once we got into the playoffs and won the Wild Card it was an insane ride and I must say the Royals were probably the better team but we were able to pull out another World Series Championship for our third in five years – incredible!

6363_SFPinball_0167fIn case you haven’t noticed, we at Orange have an affinity for pinball.  We’ve been documenting the resurgence in pinball over the past couple years, and have even had a pinball machine at the studio (with a new Iron Man coming soon!).

As the event photographer, […]
