Posted by: Peter J. Nelson E was right. I was still celebrating. I figured since the Twins had to pump their breaks on celebrating and get on a plane that I'd push on for them. I slept with ESPN on all night to make sure it wasn't all a dream.
Nothing I write will accurately describe the energy inside the white puffy palace last afternoon/evening/night. If I could imagine what October 1991 was like inside there in, it'd be like last night:
Everyone had a moment last night…players AND fans included.
My night started with a Dome Dog in the first. That led to pacing in the concourse when we were down three early on. After two runs, I was back in my seat and stayed there for the rest of the game. During which it was a series of tingly light headed moments as I was constantly jumping to my feet and sinking back into my seat in disappointment. I wasn't the only one.
From my upper deck outfield vantage point I could see Go-Go beating himself up and yelling at himself as he walked to center field after grounding out with two runners on. I knew if he had another chance to bat he'd make something happen.
Now the whole team has another chance…let's make something happen again.
