Our Last Twins Game of the Year

Last week we went to our last Twins game of the year. It was our 11th Twins game of the year (Adam and I each went to one game without the other), and 7th of the year at Target Field (2 games in DC and 2 in Seattle).

This time, the Twins played the Detroit Tigers. We took Christine as part of her birthday present (we gave it to her back in May for when she'd be up here at school). We picked up Christine at 5:30, and were there by 6. Just in time to catch the end of the Tigers batting practice.

Our seats were AMAZING! It was our first time sitting in the Dugout Box, which is the lower level section behind the dugouts. It was so fancy - the seats were even cushioned! And there was a private lower level concession area with bathrooms just for this section to use. Super handy! I loved sitting here. I've been up higher behind home plate, but I love being as close to the field as possible, so almost preferred these.

Pinto was the catcher, and Diamond pitched.

 We were right by first base, so had great views of Prince Fielder!

I was excited to see all the other Detroit big names like Torii Hunter,

 Miguel Cabrera (or as I like to call him, Mig Cab),

and Verlander (hanging over the dugout fence).

 Surprisingly, we had a perfect night. You never know what outdoor baseball in September will be like!

Twins lost 4-2. We stayed until the end, so it got a little late. But it was fun!

We did have some pretty obnoxious people around us (never fails!), but made the best of it. The drunk guys in front of us were fun to laugh at, and the obnoxious and loud Detroit fan was fun to cheer against. But the highlight of the night was being on the big screen not once, not twice, but three times! Christine was traumatized. I thought I would hate it, but it was pretty funny. As long as I'm never on the Kiss Cam, I'll be fine!
