It's Always Fun, But...

FWorks  Twins-v-Angels 5/28/11 Target Field
Which brings the fireworks.
It's even better when we win.

Smiles and joy after a 10th inning walk-off single.
We went to last Saturday evening's game at Target Field between the Twins and the Angels. It was a perfect night for the game, especially after driving through a tornado warning on the way up.

Sunset Twins-v-Angels 5/28/11 Target Field
This has to be one of the most photogenic fields in baseball.

It was a pitchers' duel. Three hits through 8 innings. The Twins had a no-hitter against the Angels through 7 2/3 innings.

But in the bottom of the 10th the Twins (finally) looked like the Twins are supposed to look. Bases loaded and the chance to win in a walk-off is given to Danny Valencia... and he comes through.

And a fan in a bunny suit gets chased across the field after the game.


What more can you ask of a night at the ballpark?
