Yankee Stadium

Well, I finally went. I actually held off a few weeks ago from breaking the bank to sit in the Legends Seats, and today I had free tickets which were awesome, just below the press boxes, in the Delta 360 suite.

First off, the stadium is awesome. It is spacious, clean, and full of great Yankee pictures and whatnot on the walls. The field is obviously gorgeous, and they have the most jumbo of trons, it is amazing. And, I was on it. All props go to the cute girls two rows above me. Bless them.

Yanks did win, 10-8, yet another come from behind win. There were four home runs total, two from each club. If there's something I'm addicted to, it is home runs. I have recently admitted that I probably do swing for the fences too much. Not necessarily for the lift, but just swinging too hard. I'm working on finding the right balance, because I don't want to be just a singles hitter.

Anyway, I got to the ballpark early enough to see the end of the Jays' BP. What is amazing is, they'd take these hacks, what looks like 80%, and hit beautiful line drives, a real lĂ­nea, and then the ball just goes. And goes and goes. Boom! In to the seats. Granted, sometimes they popped it up, didn't get it right, or it didn't clear the wall, but I love watching the sheer awesomeness of major leaguers.

Hopefully one day Met fans will experience it. Zing!
