Dal💙: how much longer until Texas?

Jackie💛: about two weeks

Dal💙: that's too long

Jackie💛: I know but it's gonna be completely worth it

Dal💙: you're right

Jackie💛: how's spring training so far?

Dal💙: all right. I haven't played too much since getting activated from the IL

Jackie💛: what did you do now?

Dal💙: I went over to Yeli's place a few weeks ago to visit with his family since they were in town and I was playing with his dog, Cooper, when I twisted my ankle

Jackie💛: how did you manage that?

Dal💙: you know how clumsy I am

Jackie💛: just be more careful from now on

Dal💙: you worry too much

Jackie💛: that's my job

Dal💙: I know. how was the home opener?

Jackie💛: it was good. wish you were here, though

Dal💙: I know but two more weeks and I get to see you

Belli: why am I just now hearing that you won't be playing in our games in two weeks?

Dally: I'm going to Texas to see Jackson that weekend. David already told me I could since we'll be in Chicago for Opening Weekend when they come to Arizona

Yeli: does Jackson know you're going to Texas?

Dally: yeah, he does. Plus I'm gonna be at his games in OKC, Tulsa, and Rancho Cucamonga since those are Dodgers teams, and even though I'm not a Dodger anymore, they want me to make an appearance at those games

Belli: and when are those games?

Dally: OKC and Tulsa are over Memorial Day weekend. Rancho is July 21-23 and I'll be back with the team for the series against the White Sox

Yeli: are they playing during the All-Star break?

Dally: yeah, they're in North Carolina and I'm going to those games

Belli: are you gonna be back in time for Boston?

Dally: maybe? it's gonna depend on when I can get a flight back to Chicago

Belli: any other games?

Dally: I'm going to Hartford in August and Syracuse and Cooperstown in September

Yeli: how many games are those?

Dally: three and they have the exhibit unveiling the day before the Cooperstown game

Judge: when's he putting a ring on your hand?

Dallas: no clue. it could happen in Texas but I'm not holding my breath

Judge: do I need to yell at him?

Dallas: no, Aaron.

Judge: good.

Dallas: besides, I want to be surprised when it happens

Judge: I know

Dallas: plus, July can't come fast enough

Judge: Does Dallas Bennett miss me?

Dallas: shut up
