No home run record, but plenty of rain

Went to my first Yankees game this season on Friday. They played the Kansas City Royals so we were not expecting much as far as a game. Thursday night A-Rod hit his 599 career home run so there was much anticipation of number 600. The game was rolling along, Yankees ahead and looking good till the bottom of the 5th when the heavens opened up and started to rain. You have to hand it to the ground crew that rolled out the big white tarp over infield and still were perky for the 7th inning YMCA. What started out as rain turned into a full blown thunderstorm with thunder and lightning right above our heads. At one point you could not see the other side of the stadium and the rain was coming sideways from the front and back. Game ended 7-1 with no home run record but wow was that lightning cool!
