    Three, two, one…

    H/T to Sam Borden on this one.

    Man, I once sat up there for a game against the Red Sox. I just remember sitting higher than the top of the foul pole – and, at one point, looking down at a bird flying past the pole. You know you’re up there when you’re looking down at bird in flight.

    Can’t remember exactly when that was…or who started for the Yankees? Could have been Gator or Rags? Or, maybe it was Tommy John? Then, again, it could have been Matt Keough, Chuck Cary, Joe Cowley, Shane Rawley, Charlie Hudson or Richard Dotson too? Dunno…

      Dent… and Jackson at Tanagra? /clasps hands

      I sat in those left field seats for Game Four of the 2001 ALCS where Soriano blasted a walk-off just before midnight. Good times.

      I saw then-Red Sox DH Jack Clark almost kill a guy with a foul ball in the upper deck in right too.

      I sat up there a number of times when I was in college and I didn’t have the dough to sit anywhere but there. I believe I also sat in that general vicinity for Game 2 of the 2002 ALDS which was one of the shittiest baseball games I’ve ever been to.

      No dorky TNG reference MJ?

      That’s disappointing.

      @ Sean McNally:
      I don’t even know what “TNG” is, LOL!

      TNG = Star Trek, The Next Generation.

      @ Steve Lombardi:
      I see. Never seen a single episode of any Star Trek of any generation. Apart from the original Star Wars trilogy (and, due to my allegiance to the franchise, the most recent trilogy), I’ve always felt like Sci-Fi was over my head.
