the game last night

(i wonder how many posts i have titled that)

we won 7-0 against the white sox! yay! very important game. kevin slowey had a complete game shutout (which means he pitched all nine innings, which they don't do all that often). it was crazy to hear the cheering when he came out of the dugout for the 9th inning. everyone went nuts. (they went nuts at the end of the game, too. and at the two homeruns, and at the bad call that ended up getting overturned, and when they put go-go gomez in center field in the 8th, and when gomez was up to bat, and when punto slid into first, and when the bad guy lost his glove over the wall trying to catch a homerun ball, and when...k, so basically the crowd was nuts last night. so, so, so fun!)

it was also fun because i went with not just my dad, but also my uncle and cousin from austria (he's 11 - just the right age to really appreciate it), and we had good seats.

i want to go tonight so badly. darn not having any friends in town!

we were in the seats above home plate. dumb us shoulda brought a sign so perhaps cousin kurt could've been circled.

maybe it was a mauer.

yes - thus the 59 on his shirt. :)
i hung out with my diana monday, but the game was with those people. she's not a big twins fan. she went on joe's bday, but that was the first game she had been to in i don't know how many years.

i think i'm going to go to tonight's game by myself. i don't have anyone to go with, but it's such an important game, and the crowd will be nuts again, and i so want to be there. so why not?

maybe you'll meet someone new in the seat next to you :)

and you're such a brat -- i meant i wasn't sure if that was slowey in the picture :P (i thought you'd be proud of me for thinking it was him:P)

ok, so i didn't see you. never mind.
and it very well could have been a mauer. he looked younger than joe, so i mentioned to my girls that he'd be closer to their ages. but they prefer the real joe.
