Ya, congrats to Big Papi :claps: :claps:

I thought of you VB when I heard on the radio the homerun by Ortiz as I was driving to the ditch. I was hoping you'd catch the ball :D

ya, too bad Beckett didn't get the chance to complete the game.

Peter, I was there also. Behind home diagnal to the Third Base Line. My wife was saying " we may actually be at the game where he breaks the record" when in mid sentance he smacks the first pitch. I say " Like that" . What a game and even though the season was over the fans where great. A very exciting game and the errors by the Twins especially on that bunt where awesome. $6.50 beers got to be expensive. Santana's first lost since the break also.

The best part of the game for me was when a couple of "Smart" kids held up a large sign. Their sign said "Circle us we go to Harvard". It was a big sign and it took two "smart" kids to hold it. Only problem was they had the sign backwards so the blank part was facing the cameras. They did this until someone pointed out to them the sign was facing the wrong way. I was laughing my ass off.
