Ok, let's work backwards here.
Last night: Went to the Twins game with Meg and Deena and Donna. Donna got the tickets from a coworker and not only were they FREE, they were fantastic seats! Row 11 (there were only actually 6 rows in front of us) between home plate and the start of the Twins dugout. SO CLOSE. The Yankees were in town, and I had never seen them play in person.
Yankees: Tight pants, broken bats, bulging muscles and arm veins. Hideki Matsui for SURE not wearing a cup.
Boyfriend-on-boyfriend action: Michael Cuddyer throws out Derek Jeter trying to stretch a single into a double. Next inning, Yankees can't throw out Cuddyer who stretches a single into a double. Derek and Cuddles discuss the 2 plays at second base. *Swoon*
Great finish: Mauer hits a solo home run to tie the game at 5 apiece in the 7th. In the 8th, Little Nicky Punto moves Cuddles to 3rd (following his spectacular double), Delmon Young lines a double to right to score Cuddles, Joe Nathan shuts down the Yankees in the 9th.
I totally have to go to work now, but more on the weekend to follow, including a 20-mile run and a weekend full of softball.

20 miles?!? You are a rock star!
Whoa, you should not be allowed to save lives today -- you AFTERGOTT that we TOTALLY saw the Yankees last year at the Dome!! We sat in the right-field upper-deck and the Yankees won. Check your scorebooks.
And seriously those seats and the game ROCKED. I was re-living it all day today. When we are old babes sharing an apartment we will have to get season tickets that close!!
Oh, I remember now! Did we fotget the binoculars that day? We sat REALLY far away...
