Twins-Sox Game

WOW! My voice is obliterated today, it hurts to talk at any volume above a whisper, but it was worth it, because last nights game was the best Minnesota Twins Game experience I have ever had. The Dome was rockin'.

Special thanks to Director of Ticket Operations for the Twins Paul Froehle for the tickets. Great guy, got to meet him and shook his hand. Thankyou again Paul.

Anyway, me and 5 friends were in section 127, on the 3rd base side of home (section is right next to the one directly behind home), and it was incredible and rowdy.

Got a call in the 2nd inning from a friend not in attendance, 'Dude, you at the Twins game? I just saw you on TV!'. Camera guy was right next to us and filming us a bunch for the first 3 innings. Got Text messages and calls from other friends as well who saw us. Then I come to work this morning and my boss says 'Did you see me at the game?' - 'Were you there too?' - 'No, could you see me through the TV, cause I saw you!'. It was cool, we're big Twins and sports fans in general.

A.J. fouls a ball off, hits the upper deck facing, comes falling in our direction, I was in an awkward position turning backwards and looking up for the ball, Friend snags it bare handed just before striking my face, good lookin out Clint.

Twins just kept clawing back and when Nick Punto reached first base in the Tenth amidst the 'Lets go Pun-To' chants, you just knew that they were gonna come through. Fantastic games from Span and Gomez, Great bullpen work for the second night in a row. Game was absolutely awesome. Hope they keep the Mojo going! Go Twins!....'Til next time....
