If you've got an extra $10,000 lying around (and come one now, who doesn't?), the opportunity has presented itself to take part in, what can only be imagined as, a very awkward dinner. As part of the Good Sports Legends of the Ball fundraiser, Daisuke Matsuzaka has agreed to have dinner with four fans. He is dragging his wife and a translator along but it still seems like a situation which might provoke an international incident (liquored-up American fans and famous, super-polite Japanese people doesn't seem like a winning combination.) As far as I can tell, though, it seems that if you bid on the prize now, you could save yourself the $150 entrance fee to the shin-dig.
Besides the dinner with Daisuke, they do have some fabulous auction lots. The two that really struck my fancy were a pitching lesson with Manny Del and getting to spend the first three innings of the game inside the green monster with the official scorer as he scores the game. These two things, I would very much like to have. I would probably turn into a squicky fangirl mess around Manny Del as he attempted to teach me to throw in a non-Mariah Carey-esque fashion but if I could only have one, it would have to be the scoring the game adventure.
