Game 1 in Missoula at the Osprey.
Rey pointed out they were the only team with a live volunteer mascot.
(This is not counting the Traverse City Beach Bums, which certainly had some BB there, especially the day we attended – so this is for non-human mascots)

We sat in the outfield beyond the fence area, at the base of the Osprey nest area.
The osprey made several appearances, including a few flights over the field during the game.

The Osprey team lost 9-3. Did not see if the Osprey caught anything (we spotted two of them)
