like many baseball geeks, i rejoiced last august when i learned that the twins would be getting their own stadium in 2010. no more neon green astroturf or \”synthetic grass\” field turf. no more leaving a sunny 75-degree day to walk into a decrepit, domed menace for a baseball game. no more having to tilt my head and body 30 degrees for three hours to see home plate. finally: the twins would be playing baseball how it\’s supposed to be played.
but then i read about the new location. northwest of the target center. isn\’t that right next to the…
yup.
as if we haven\’t been subjected to enough stinky performances on the field from the team in the last twenty years, i thought… the tons of burning garbage next door to the stadium might make me miss watching jerald clark, kevin maas, and matt walbeck.
the news today? no stinky. at least, beyond anything occurring on the field of play.
