Today was the Twins Season Opener and it was Cami’s turn to go to the game.\u00a0 I had asked her earlier in the week if she wanted to skip the entire day of school or get picked up at noon.\u00a0 She said she wanted to go to school but wanted to be picked up at 11:30.\u00a0 As she walked towards me at school, she was smiling from ear to ear and was so excited she could hardly contain herself.\u00a0 We got to the ballpark at about 12:15 so we had about a 45 minute wait for the gates to open.\u00a0 Once we got in we walked to the Twins side of the outfield.\u00a0 Cami decided that she was going to go after the Royals for autographs.\u00a0 She said the Royals are her second most favorite team.\u00a0 She has been a fan of them for the last few years so I knew it was not just the team in front of her at the moment.\u00a0 She asked for a baseball and went over to the Royals side hoping for an autograph.\u00a0 Meanwhile, my buddy Tony and his group entered the ballpark and Cami called me to say “I just got the Royals manager’s autograph!”.\u00a0 I was thinking ‘Ned Yost… not bad for her collection!’\u00a0 I got over to her just after Tony and his crew found her and talked with her.\u00a0 I then toss her a new baseball and she tossed me the one she got signed.\u00a0 I looked at it and could not figure out who it was.\u00a0 I knew it was not Ned Yost.\u00a0 Some Royals fans around us said it was Doug Henry, the bullpen coach.\u00a0 I just laughed.\u00a0 She was happy though so I guess that is all that matters.\u00a0 She now has a sweetspot Doug Henry baseball in her collection.<\/p>\n
We had a blast for the rest of the afternoon watching the Twins beat the Royals 7-1.\u00a0 The day was one that will become a special memory for Cami years from now!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
