Yankees def Red Sox 4-3 Yay!!!


The Red Sox had just beaten the Yankees in the first 3 of a 4 game series, so the fans were not confident, including the lady from the Bronx who sold me this shirt in the Yankee store at the stadium.
The ground was full, the sun was shining, the beer was expensive and it was a great day.
The Yankees won on the last play in the last innings, how good is that!!!
We saw the batters close up by standing up on the concourse, then went up to our seats in the "nosebleeds" at the top of the stadium to see the panorama. There we sat behind Paul from Connecticut and his wife, their children and some friends of their children. Paul is a Yankees supporter but some of the children are Red Sox, but they had a good time too. Good people having a good time.

  1. Did they allow you in with your confirmation email - or did you have to pay again?

    1. I didnt see a crowd figure, but I would guess capacity was around the same as the SCG and it was 80% full.
