And don't forget to stand up during the 7th inning

On Sunday, I went to a San Diego Padres game by myself (I had originally planned to spend the day at the Comic-Con in San Diego, but nothing on the schedule of panels and screenings looked that interesting). To give me something to do during the game, I bought a scorecard from a vendor; I handed him a dollar, he handed me the scorecard, and then I walked away.

He then called after me, "Team rosters are on the piece of paper inside." Over my shoulder, while I was walking away, I kind of mumbled, "Thanks."

He continued, "Starting lineups will be on the scoreboard."

Yes, it's nice that he pointed out to me that, for my dollar, I not only got a scorecard, I also got a piece of paper listing the complete rosters of the two teams playing today, among other pieces of information; however, I wonder what led him to think that perhaps I had never been to a baseball game before in my life, and therefore was unaware that, at some point before the game starts, they announce the starting lineups and helpfully display the names on the scoreboard. (In fact, at Qualcomm Stadium, they put all nine names from each team on the scoreboard at once, while the PA announcer is still reading them off, which makes it very easy to fill out a scorecard.)
