It looks like the suns peeaking out i reall hope they play this game.Im so pissed at my sister i told her to order 2 tickets and ill receive them today and she totally forgot so now im stuck home.The bad thing about it these wer pretty good seats by the first base close to the dugout for a very cheap prcie.
as much as i wanna chat with you guys during the game, i'm gonna be in my basement watching it in hd. but i'll try and get up here to chat with you guys! if not, i'll get at ya'll for postgame.
I'm excited!
Nice, they did Roll Call.
i hope they can get a different camera angle from behind home plate.. the net is in the way for every play...
wait, Kay just said Bob Sheppard is not retired..
Yea Dan, that's the story the Yankees are going with. I dunno, at this point I don't think he's coming back.
They've gotta do something about that net, on every groundball we're going to have to look through that thing all season?
Looks that way.
The stadium looks great.
It does look good, but it's weird. At least to me it is.
Same here. Seeing the pics that you just posted of the old one made me sad. I completly forgot what ever I did today.
Who had Cano is the first home run at the stadium poll?
I had Damon :o.
I can live with Cano, homegrown talent.
i think i may have picked him.. not sure. when he came up last inning i called him hitting a homer, and he did!..I think he's gonna have a Big year this year
wadda ya know robbie canO. he drilled that
I wanted Posada.
Matsui goes yard!!!
I swear to God i called that one too!! From now on i'll just post it on here if im feeling another HR.
Looks like the lefties like the new short porch.
OH MY GOD ITS GODZILLA!!
Yeah Greg, its only April and the ball is flying out to right.
I think the next homer will be a cub.
I'm embarassed. I just sneeze on my computer screen. I'm sick so... ya.
next will be Damon for Yanks.. Cubs next will be Bradley.. just a guess
rain delay in Queens
Brett Gardner hitting the next homer.
The Red Sox are there so there ruinning the game for the mets.
GAMES TIED
how many HR's would Barry Bonds cerca 2001 hit in this park.. 100?
looking at the radar, it looks like we should be rain free for the rest of the night, maybe some right now, but nothing after that for the rest of the game.
It's starting to rain there.
its just alittle patch thats moving out quick..
Do you think Cano will go yard again?
Too bad Soriano isn't playing.
i no, i thought he was. they said he was leading off in the pregame
AHHHHHHHHHHHHH.. RANSOM!!
I was wrong.. but who cares? As long as we keep jackin em
The balls have been jumping off the Yankees bats.
good way to open up the new stadium.. in 7 months we'll be WS Champs
that game was beautiful!
just came back from the game...the stadium is beautiful...the food are out in center field above the sports bar is the best...you can stand there and watch the game while eating and drinking...walking around the place is a joy...more spacious than the old stadium...i walked down to the field level and the view there is amazing...seeing the screen in pictures doesn't do it justice...it's enormous...great time..
Just got back from the game (had to go to NJ before I came home). Well I thought I would be safe from the rains with the roof over the grandstands, but to my surprise most of the seats in our section were wet when we came in. It appears that the driving rain comes through the open back wall and most of the seats will get wet anyway. Same for the concourse area on the third level - totally wet with the driving rain.
Otherwise the place looked great at night. They took the netting above monument park down for the game and draped it to try and block out the plagues. Another "tacky" feature! We'll see how it goes tomorrow for a day game and if the sun reflects off the glass in center.
Glad to hear you guys had a good time.
The Hard Rock Cafe was jammed pack the whole night. The yankees are really going to cleanup.
They also have an after hours bar which I think closes at 1AM
