The Miniplug calorimeters, designed to measure the energy and
lateral position of particles in the forward pseudorapidity region of 3.6 <
|eta| < 5.1, have been installed as part of the CDF upgraded detector for
Run II at the Tevatron.  Proton-antiproton beams are colliding at sqrt s =
1.96 TeV.  One year after installation, Miniplug detector performance and
first results are presented.
