It's up...it's long...it's going....home run!!!!













Full of excitement we boarded the subway to Yankee Stadium with the other 50,000+ ticket holders and by the time we got there we were packed into that carriage like sardines!
Game time 7:05pm. Grab your foot long hot dog and find your seat. Ours, the cheap nose bleeders unfortunately next to two of New York's most stupid and nerdy men and a row away from two of New York's most annoying 'like...you know...like...OMG....like....I like so love baseball....' bimbettes.

Batter up....Derek Jeter - Yankees Legend (short-stop) and Alex Rodriguez - Legend with the Ladies (3rd base (on the field, off field he always makes it home)) both in the starting line up.

Los Angeles Angels are the opposition and have lost 2 from 2 so far in this visit to Yankee Stadium so the Yankees are keen to make it 3.

A home run from LAA's ex-Yankee player Matsui wakes the Yankees up and from then on it's all one way traffic....balls flying over the outfiled fence for home runs courtesy of Yankee's Cano, Jeter and some other blokes.

Bloody cold we went adventuring to see whether we could score a better view and hello...here I am field level behind the catcher. If only the large security guard would bugger off!!
Highlight: when the cameras found Jerry Springer in the crowd and put him on the big screen with the 50,000+ strong crowd cheering 'Jerry...Jerry...Jerry' led by Tugs!
