No joy at “The Joe,” Riley Park, Charleston, South Carolina, 2013

The visiting Rome (Georgia) Braves were pummeling the host Charleston Riverdogs this evening, and I turned my camera to the fan reaction. This trio of Riverdogs supporters shows body language and expressions that convey a numb acceptance of the reality before them. It is late in the game, and they are still hanging around, but there is obviously no joy at “The Joe,” as Joseph Riley Park is known. The Riverdogs are losing about as many games as they are winning this year, but winning is not what minor league baseball is all about. Class A teams are primarily geared to player development, and in Charleston’s case, that means grooming players to perhaps someday play for the parent New York Yankees.
