Wednesday we win

Left work at 5 to get home by 6 for the Fighters game and run errands. Did my traditional bento from Tonkatsu Wako, a konomibento with Hokkaido croquette and two other katsu things. (Katsu means "win", but it also means "fried cutlet".) Got a drink from the conbini -- a new kind of Gogonokocha which is "Apple Darjeeling au Lait". It sounds good, but actually, it ROYALLY SUCKS. At least now I know. I like apple tea and I like milk tea, so apple milk tea sounded good.

Watched the game, chatted in the chatroom on japanesebaseball.com, and liveblogged for my site. I also did laundry, which resulted in my not seeing a few plays when I went down to check the laundry machine, but whatever. The game itself, the Eagles were up on the Fighters for quite a while and then out of nowhere the Fighters exploded on Kazuo Fukumori in the bottom of the 9th, culminating in Terrmel Sledge coming to the plate with the score 8-5 and bases loaded and BLAM hitting a grand slam into the left-field stands. Crazy dramatic. Nomura looked GRUMPIER THAN EVER but IMO he deserves it for making 4 pitching changes in one inning and extending the game by like 45 minutes.

Tonight I am going to the Tokyo Dome to hate on the Giants. Hooray.
