Here's my attempt to subvert the adverts about which a commenter complained, and turn this from a movie blog to a baseball blog: I went with Noah and John and Nathan (John's roommate) to see the Minnesota Twins play the Oakland A's today. It was a very exciting game; the Minnesota Twins relievers pitched out of big jams in the 8th and 9th to send it to extra innings, they scored in the top of the 10th on an error by the Oakland A's shortstop, and the closer struck out the side in the bottom of the 10th to hold on for a 3-2 win. It's nice going to see a baseball game in a real stadium, the Network Associates Coliseum. And while it's not as nice as Pacific Bell Park, we saw the game for the same price as a movie, and had decent seats in the outfield. There aren't many places where you can do that.
