Good luck, Tony!

Now I know many people are tired of fans whining about Tony Campana being traded, I just want to make it clear I am not one of those people.

Campana was mainly a one trick pony and did not have much to offer. He was very friendly with fans and especially the younger fans. He always signed before games and was very charismatic. As a photographer, I loved to photograph him both on and off the field. You never knew what he was going to do.

That being said, the trade made sense. He will do well with a change of scenery and the Cubs got two prospects in return.

This post is to share some of the fun photos I captured of Tony. Enjoy!

Yes, that is LaHair to the left of Campana. It is easy to see which one of the two has speed.

Campana being dwarfed by Joe Mather in the outfield pow wow.

This was hilarious! Campana motions for Anthony Rizzo to pull him up. Rizzo starts to pull him up, but then starts to let him fall back down towards the ground before completely pulling him up.
