Tigers & Yankees

Tuesday night Amanda and I attempted to go to a Tiger's game...it got rained out.  It was rescheduled for the following day - good for me, bad for Amanda.  I ended up going with my boss/friend from work, and I had a great time.

So, yeah the Yankees lost but redeemed themselves in the second game of the night.

In case you didn't know, I'm a Yankees fan.

The seat were great (sorry you couldn't be there Amanda).  For those of you who know Comerica Park, we were in section 138, row 19.  For those who don't know, section 138 is along the 3rd base line.  Row 19 was really close...it was awesome.

I'm working on getting the pics off my camera.  Check back for updates.  Ed out.
