Attended my first Minnesota Twins game of the season yesterday and my first nooner ever. It was an important game as they were down 2-1 in the series with the AL Central leading Indians. Went with a few co-workers to the game and we sure picked a good day... only during the most record breaking week in Minnesota. 100 degrees with a heat index of 115 degrees. A $7.25 beer never tasted so good. The second was also good. However, I had to use the old 1:1 beer water ratio in the order of water beer beer water. Was so hot that the beer was almost warm even when chugging it.
The humidity as also so thick you could cut it with a knife and almost eat it on a hot dog. Speaking of hot dogs, the Grill Dog has to be the best hot dog in the place. They load it up with grilled onions and was fantastic.
Twins ended up with a victory after being tied 4-4 at the start of the bottom of the either and then scored 3 runs on a couple of nice hits strung together and a 2 run RBI hit by new Japanese Twins player Tsuyoshi Nishioka. Joe Nathan came in to close out the 9th, let up one homer but finished it out.
Tt was a great game, and as always, great to get out and see the gorgeous Target Field again.
