Yankees @ Nationals


Chien-Ming Wang ready to pitch

Derek Jeter at bat

Ivy and me

Our flight touched down at DC on Saturday midnight and we had only about 5 hours of sleep before we went to Yankees game playing at Nationals. Ivy and I were both Yankees fans. At first we worried that we are the only Yankees fans. To my surprise, there were a lot of Yankees fans and some of them were even carrying Taiwanese flag to support Chien-Ming Wang. Also, the high attendance is a new record at this ballpark. Due to the Metro train delay, it was already at the bottom 5th inning when we arrived RFK stadium. And, it was 90F hot day. The front row of us were Yankees fan. The row behind us were Nationals fans. There were some words exchange during the game between them. Ivy and I were scared to be sandwich between radical fans. Despite this unpleasant situation, we had a great time watching the beloved Yankees playing. Yankees almost bank in the game until the last inning when Zimmerman hit a walk-off homer. Nationals defeated Yankees with 3-2. Although we lost the game, we enjoyed the good time watching game with beer. That's what baseball all about.

Mobile blogging

This is my first mobile blog. I am writing this on JetBlue flight to Oakland with my Moto Q. Q is an awesome smartphone and it makes mobile blogging so much easier than I've expected. I'll try my best mobile blogging through the whole week I'm in San Francisco for business trip. Alright, I should catch some sleep now.
