It's that time of year again when I'm a center field camera operator for the Nevada State High School Baseball Championships. As you can see it was a beautiful day for baseball in Peccole Park on the campus of UNR here in Reno. We were video taping the Boys 1A, 3A, & 4A Championship games for Gustin Sports Productions. They were streamed live on GSP.com and the 4A game was shown the following day on KNPB.
The first match up of the day was the 1A championship game between Pahranagat and Virginia City. VC won the first game forcing a second "if" game in which Pahranagat won and became the 1A State Champions.
The second match up of the day was between 3A schools Truckee and Elko. This too went to an "if" game after Elko won the first game but Truckee persevered and won the second game thus becoming the Nev State 3A Baseball Champions. I think it's funny that a school from California is the Nev State Champs. Ha, go figure?
Here I am high atop the scaffolding out in center field. It's was a birds eye view and perfect positioning for a camera operator to get the pitcher/home plate shot. It was a long day doing 5 games and being perched up there for over 12 hours. But I had my comfy chair and snacks to keep me energized the whole day long. Plus I got to work on my tan.
As you can see after the sun goes down it gets cold here in Reno, even in May. This is the final game of the day where Bishop Gorman destroyed Coronado 11-1 in 6 innings to win the Boys 4A Championship.
So that's the latest from Your Reno Camera Guy. It was a great baseball season and I enjoyed acting as the center field camera operator for all the games we did for GSP. Now bring on the football season!
