Twins Game

So, a guy from Sonny's work happened to have tickets to the last game of the Twins/White Sox Series. And for whatever reason, a week or so before the game, he offered the tickets to Sonny because he couldn't go. Sonny, of course, gobbled them up and we went to the game. And on Wednesday night, at the end of the second game of the series, we realized how big the Thursday night game was going to be.

We made sure to wear Twins gear. We had been to three games earlier in the year and every time we went, the Twins lost. We almost thought that we shouldn't attend because of this trend. But we were hopeful that they were going to win. Also, if they did win, they would be a half game ahead of the White Sox in the division, and that would be awesome.

Well, the game did not have a very promising start. No score in the first, second, or third. Top of the 4th, the Sox scored 6 runs. It was at this point, I asked Sonny if we should leave. We weren't so hopeful anymore.

Twins scored two at the bottom of the fourth and from then on were consistent in averaging at least one run per inning. By the end of the 8th inning, they were tied, 6-all. At the end of the 9th inning the tie remained and we entered the 10th inning. The Sox made no progress in the 10th and the Twins managed to score therefore winning the game!!

(For those of you that already know all this, I apologize. But not all my friends follow baseball.)

It was awesome to be there!! We had awesome seats in the second row to the right of the foul line. It was so exciting in there!! I could hardly stand it!!

I did manage to hold onto my voice. People at work the next day were surprised I had a voice left. I'm a speech path. I know better than to scream my lungs out, for the most part.

And another crazy thing, besides the come from behind win was the fact that I ran into my ex, Phil, there. He happened to be in town taking a mini-vakay and we just happened to be at the same game in sections right next to each other. Crazy!
