Boston Red Sox vs New York Yankees, September 25, 2011 ESPN Recap

Yankees Stadium - Gate 6I spent a beautiful Sunday afternoon at Yankees Stadium with the wife and two good friends to watch the NY Yankees beat up on the Boston Red Sox. AJ Burnett pitched a pretty good game and he got a standing ovation when he was finally taken out in the 8th inning. The Yankees were already leading 2 – 0 when we got to the game but they scored more runs for our enjoyment.

Final OutWe sat in section 223 and the seats were great! We are usually in the upper deck near the right field foul pole and it is sometimes difficult to see all of the action. Section 223 is on the third base side of home plate and it gives a great view of home runs hit to right field (like the one Posada hit today).

The crowd around us was pretty tame (no fights that I could see) and it was just a great time all around (italian sausage, chicken fingers, cheese fries…the perfect ingredients for a good time at the stadium). I can’t wait for the playoffs to start!

Let’s go Mets!

I got the pleasure of attending my second Mets game of the 2006 season courtesy of my girlfriend’s sister’s law firm. They rented out the left field terrace. This meant a private lounge and private seats with free hot dogs, chicken tenders, hamburgers, drinks and cookies! Mr. Met even dropped by to say hi to some of the kids. He happened to sign two of the Mets hats that we had. Surprisingly, his signature came out pretty clearly. I don’t know how he could do so with such a big costume on. All in all it was a very fun night with the Mets beating up on the Cincinnati Reds. Even the pitcher Steve Trachsel hit a home run!

In other news, the Stankees…I mean Yankees finally won one.
