After work today, I went with a bunch of coworkers to see Yankees play the Blue Jays. This was the first baseball game, also the first sporting event since graduating from Tech, that I have been to. Well, I figured that as I start my fifth year being a New Yorker, this was sort of a necessary experience.
Prior to this, all my knowledge surrounding baseball came from the Mitsuru Adachi comic books, and all I knew about the Yankees was that the entire island of Taiwan raves about Chien-Ming Wang. As a result, I didn’t know any of the terms in English and couldn’t name any of the top stars. Then I learned some tonight.

The remaining gang after 10pm:
So the Yankees got their ass kicked 10-4, so I declared myself a Blue Jays fan and celebrated the victory.
