Call in sick and enjoy an afternoon game

By Olivia Flores Alvarez

Published on July 03, 2008

Tell your boss you have an imaginary doctor’s appointment and head out to catch the Astros in the last of their four-game home stand against the L.A. Dodgers. Yes, the Astros are a few games out of first place, but hey, it’s Thursday afternoon and there’s a game going on. Get out there and cheer for them anyway. 1:05 p.m. Minute Maid Park, 501 Crawford. For information, call 713-259-8000 or visit www.astros.mlb.com. $1 to $50.
June 30-July 2, 7:05 p.m.; Thu., July 3, 1:05 p.m., 2008
