I had an opportunity to be at Game 162, but I passed on it. One of the friends I made over the years on one of the various sports forums I frequent messaged me and asked if I would be interested in their tickets for the game. They would be out of town and unable to make it. I desperately wanted to go, but I was coaching that weekend and my team had a tournament ending that Sunday afternoon. With the Minnesota Twins final game starting at 2:10, my team’s final game ending sometime between 3:00-3:30, and an hour drive to get to Target Field, I figured I wouldn’t make it until 4:00 or later, likely the 6th inning or 7th inning at best.
Minnesota Twins: Thank you for all that you have done, Joe Mauer
