A Cold NY Night

It was a very cold night, but there was nowhere better to be than in the Bronx at Yankee Stadium watching the Yankees and Red Sox battle it out for the first time in NY this season. It was such a thrilling game, with the Sox taking a 1-0 lead in the top of the 1st, and then the Yankees responding with back-to-back home runs in the bottom of the 1st, making it 1-3, New York. The score bounced back and forth with the two teams fighting mightily for the lead. Final score was 9-15 Yanks. The game lasted over four hours. And it was cold. That being said, note this: I love baseball!!!

Joba'ss still out on bereavement leave, which means we didn't see him pitch again today (*sadness*). The rumor mill says that Harlan's doing a little better, so that's good news. The pen seems weird (and a lot weaker) in his absence.

Can I just say now that Boston fans are horrid people? Wow, what idiots. We had a row of 8 "plastics" sit in front of us (Mean Girls reference), 7 of whom were obnoxious Boston fans. Half of them apparently were not sporting their natural hair color, and I'm willing to bet most of them had plastic surgery as well. They were obnoxious and got pissy when we cheered for the Yanks (Uh, hello? We're in Yankee Stadium. Get over it.) and even more pissy when we loudly and lustily booed their beloved Sox. Sucks to be a Boston fan.

I saw a shirt today that tickled me pink . . . The front said: "There was no curse . . ." and the back: "Boston just sucked for 86 years." LOL Jake's parents weren't home when I was heading back from Trenton today, so he couldn't wear his "Evil Empire" shirt.

A lot more to blog on, but I'm trying to think of how to word it. Stay tuned.
