**That’s a shout out to Jude and Kerry, and any other Sox fan I missed! LOL!
I know, I know. It’s just one game. But it was a good one! We’re still 7 games back and the light at the end of the tunnel leading to post-season is getting dimmer by the day.
However…
WE HAD A BLAST LAST NIGHT!
I used to attend several games every season (bleacher seats), but in the past few years, it’s dwindled down. We now have access to really great seats but it’s an expensive night (prime seat plus gas, food, beverages = $200+ easily). That’s not an expense that Lois considers “necessary” as I do. Plus, my ability to get tickets from title insurance companies or clients is almost non-existant since leaving my last firm.
Last night was definitely worth it, but it was probably my only game of the season.
CHECK OUT OUR SEATS!!! 7 ROWS BACK!
Look at those cute girls sitting on the Yankees’ dugout! OK, at least there’s one cute girl! (Look at straight girl Suz wearing a girly tank top to a ballgame!)
Here’s CS and look who is diagonally behind him….Dr. Jeter!!
Dr. and Mrs. Jeter were very nice and CS was chatting it up with him for most of the game. I did feel a little annoyed for them that some people felt the need to try to get their autographs. Poor people just wanted to watch the game like normal people.
Here’s some more pictures of the 4 of us (PS, CS, Suz and I) and a few player shots from our seats! Nice camera work on those, Suz!
Andy Pettite
Derek
Andy Phillips (who Suz is totally in love with now!)
..and, of course, HIDEKI!
And we got there early enough to see the pre-game batting practice and sportscasters’ pre-game coverage.
YEAH BABY – Here’s Len Berman
I can’t wait until Andrew is old enough to go to games!
And thanks to everyone on your support for a non-Weight Watchers night! I had a pulled pork sandwich, a few bites of Dippin Dots, some popcorn and a couple, or should I say “a few” (I wasn’t driving) non-light beers. I’m sure I’ll be unhappy with myself at weigh-in tonight, but it’s not like I was a total WW saint all week anyway!

BTW – One of Tate’s Mommies got the Pats. JP, K’s wife, from Role Playing got the Colts.

Ok, so I don’t love baseball but I would have LOVED to be in those seats.
I do love Derek Jeter though.
Your friend looks a little like Faith Hill. I thought you had your picture taken with someone famous.
Be sure to tell her

I’m jealous; love the Yankees!!! Actually, baseball is the only sport I really like. I do not leave the house or make any plans during the World Series.

I’m not a sports fan, but it looks like you had a great time. I wouldn’t mind sitting outside eating sandwiches and drinking beer though! : )

Looks like you had a great time and what great seats you had.
I love going to baseball games. Since the Royals totally suck you can get really good seats for next to nothing. Where they get you is the food/drinks. But for some reason hot dogs taste better at the ballpark.

Hey Denise! Yeah, I darkened my hair a month or so ago. I think it’s probably close to my natural color. But then again, I was a blonde for so long, I don’t know what my natural color is anymore!

Well Holly maybe Jude and I esp’ed the Sox and told them to let the Yankees win since it was such a special night for you! LOL. I am glad however you had such a good time. Rangers and Astros just aren’t the same here in TX.

I agree with Kerry. We asked them to LET you win!
