It was a lovely night at the ballpark. The lady Gophers hockey captains threw out one of the "first pitches", which was pretty cool.
Other highlights include: Dozier's falling catch in the first:
Pujols golfing into a F-9:
Pelfrey "dealing" (it was the second inning):
Mauer's ouchy foot:
Morneau excited about a pitch:
Escobar to 2nd on Hicks' walk:
Escobar looking like a 15 year old:
Plouffe setting up for an E-5:
Perkins:
And fireworks:
The Twins move to 6-7 (3rd AL Central, 2 GB) and the Angels fall to 4-10 (T-4 AL East, 6.5 GB)
Very nice. Thanks for sharing. I particularly like the Dozier one.
Thanks! I was particularly happy with that one, too.
I like it, rpz- especially the Plouffe E-5 and the Mauer ouchy foot.
Suck it, Scioscia!
I forgot to mention the insane Swarzak, pitching in short sleeves in the mid 30 degree weather. Every other player had at least long sleeves and a few were wearing ear flaps.
Also, Mike Trout was awesome before the game. He was signing things for something like 10 minutes right before the game, and he went to the less nice seats as well as the insanely expensive ones. Pujols, on the other hand, didn't quite manage to glance at the crowd.
