I saw A-Rod hit 500th homer- picture

I sat 12 rows from home plate. It was so exciting to see something so rare!

A-Rod and Jeter

Might be hard to to tell because I had to make this pictures so small to fit but this is A-Rod, Jeter and Cano during National Anthem.

A-Rod's first at bat after 500.

I'm not a Yankee fan, but that had to be a great moment. When all is said and done, you may have witnessed a landmark moment by one of the top 5 baseball players of all time.

What is Yankee Stadium like?

I heard from a very reputable player (ahem, ahem...Canseco) that ARod uses the juice.

Honestly there is a reason they are building a new park. If any other team played there the stadium would be nothing special. It obviously was remodled in the early 70s so it really doesn't have a feel to it like Wrigley or Fenway. That being said it is amazing to go see a game there. The fans are insane... when Farnsworth came into the game they booed him so bad I felt sorry for the guy. You really feel like you are walking into greatness when going there. I loved it... it's just so special to think about all the great players and teams that have played there.

Definitley. We all talk crap about them, but the New York Yankees are the most-recognized sports franchise ever. Hell, I hate the Yankees, but I have a cap with their logo just because.

Props to A-Rod by the way. I hope he uses the leverage from the season he's been having to stick it to the front office there. He's getting crap from every other person in NYC while all the Uncle Moneybags that run the franchise are slowly figuring out that even a billion dollars can't guarantee you a World Series.
