Yankee Stadium

Pinstripes' home field

Yankee Stadium is the baseball park in the Bronx, New York, home of the New York Yankees.

The original stadium opened in 1923 and hosted legendary players from Babe Ruth to Derek Jeter; a new stadium opened across the street in 2009.

We got tickets to the game at Yankee Stadium.

The nickname "The House That Ruth Built" refers to the original structure.
