"The (Cincinnati) spectators all arise between halves of the seventh inning, extend their legs and arms, and sometimes walk about." - Cincinnati Red Stockings Player Harry Wright (letter home, 1869)

This is the easiest of this series of caches and why not: It is the 7th inning stretch.

It is perhaps the most mundane, yet physically rewarding moment of every baseball game (and this series). A few precious minutes in which the hours of excruciating stress and anticipation is momentarily lifted for a well-deserved break. It is a time to stand, to dance, to sing and to take care of "nature's calling." It is the Seventh-Inning Stretch and it has become as important a tradition in America's Pastime as the National Anthem and the first pitch.

This cache is located at Raley Field in West Sacramento, a celebated landmark known as one of the best places to see a baseball game in the country.
