I think the lens you had provided you with the best effect considering
where you were seated. The best seats for enjoying the game are not
necessarily the best seats for photographing the game action.
To make most effective use of a long lens photographing baseball, you
need to be seated where you can shoot down the line from first to second.
You also got the essential element for a good baseball photo; you caught
the ball in the air - which you likely wouldn't have done with a long lens.

sooooo offensive) so I jumped at the chance. Never been to a box

Free beer.
To be more accurate, "beer that someone else paid for". Whatever, I
liked it.
Didn't bring a long lens, so with the kit zoom I'm okay with this
photo. Here's ace knuckleballer R.A. Dickey throwing a strike:

On a baseball scorecard a strike out is marked "K", and this pitch
was an inning-ending strike, hence the title.
Jays won. Maintained their lead over the hated Yankees. I got free
beer.
It was a good night.
Cheers,
