Yankee Stadium Matchday Megathread

Wouldn't it make more sense to put us in the auxiliary locker room and set it up nice for NYCFC? That way we don't have to clear out the locker room for every Yankees home stretch.

I would imagine that locker room #3 isn't nearly as nice as the others.

I don't see how they're going to get this field in order by tomorrow when it's going to rain all day today. Still seems like it's a long ways away. This grounds crew must employ magicians.

Paint that shit.

Shame the winter was just so absolutely savage and unrelenting.

Would have been great to have the field looking like this for tomorrow:

When does baseball actually start up at YS?

Apr 6

You'd think we'd play home games every week until then...but instead, we're going to Colorado next week.

Here's my question, are they going to leave the grass and just add the baseball dirt over-top of it before each Yankee game and then remove it after?

That would make for a nicer field than doing it like this:

I think they will do whatever is best for the Yankees. Our field is always kept in great shape and we have 81 games to play there .

They remove the grass. The dirt infield is below it.

They're going to paint the shit out of that grass so it looks green as hell tomorrow.

Tough to schedule a lot of games in NY in March....as evidenced by this shit show of a winter.

 

[Vaporizer]

The field is not going to look good tomorrow, they've only had a few days to get it ready. It will look better on the 28th as long as we don't get any more snow lol

Today is the first day that i don't have snow on my block!

 

[thesauerchise]

Not to mention if we had 4 home games to start we would then get 4 straight road games later on, leading to that complaint, can't win either way.

March is always touch and go for weather in NYC, April can be unpredictable too.. It will all get sorted out and the Yankees and NYCFC will learn to coexist within the stadium and on the field .
I'm sure they will do whatever they can to make both teams happy ...
