Baseball in STL - interleague

After spending time for work in San Jose, I headed to St. Louis for some interleague baseball between the awesome Minnesota Twins and the losers of the 1987 world series, the Cardinals. We had tickets to Friday night and Saturday's Day game.

We had great seats behind home plate, thanks to my dad's work. Here's your AL MVP taking a swing during the game, St. Joe Mauer.

After the game, with the Twins the victors, we took a group photo, from L-R, Ben, my dad, me, and Dave.

The next day, a 12:00 start, and temps in the upper 90's. Tough day to watch baseball. However, we had Dave's uncle's seats, located 2 rows off the field, right by the visitor's dugout. Here's Brendan Harris signing autographs for the fans. No zoom lens required here, he was so close.

And here's the view into the Twins' dugout from our seats. There's Gardy getting ready for the game. The Twins lost this day. It was probably too hot, the temperature was 100 at the end of the game. It was a fun weekend, thanks to Dave and dad for the tickets!
