Twins Game

On Tuesday, Michael, Chris, Tanya and myself all went to the Twins game. We were going for a good cause. The reason for going was to benefit an organization called Cornerhouse. Cornerhouse is a non-profit organization whose mission is the following: To maintain the highest quality intervention system for children alleged to be victims of abuse and violence. For the past 17 years, they have had their annual fundraiser picnic at the Metrodome. I was able to get tickets through work to go to this fundraiser. Tuesday's picnic was catered by Divine Swine and included gift bags for the kids as well as live and silent auctions and door prizes. Last year's picnic attendance was 1600 people. After the picnic, we went into the Dome to see the Twins play the White Sox. Before Tuesday's game, the White Sox were in 1st place in the division, with the Twins 1.5 games back. The game didn't start off on a good note. The White Sox were up 4-0 in the 5th when the Twins rallied and got 5 runs. The game was 6-4 in the 9th and Joe Nathan gave up a homerun but was able to get the save. Twins win 6-5! We sat on the 1st base side in foul ball territory. There was a foul ball that came directly 2 rows below us that own of my coworkers got. It was a fun night!
