At yesterday’s 12-3 blowout at Yankee Stadium, White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen couldn’t take it anymore. So he said something magical to the ump and, boom, he’s thrown uot of the game!

Well, that didn’t exactly help the White Sox…they still got creamed by Phil Hughes and the Yankees. Better luck next time Ozzie!

Tuesday, April 20th, 2010Ok, so Mark Texeira hasn’t been hitting all that great in April, but he hit this nice shot on Opening Day at Yankee Stadium, April 13, 2010.
In my photo below, his bat is about to strike the ball for a double.

Exclusive Photo: Matsui gets his ring at Yankee Stadium #Yankees #Yanks #MLB
Monday, April 19th, 2010On Opening Day 2010 at Yankee Stadium, most of the Yankees received their 2009 world championship rings. The team they defeated in the 2009 ALCS, the Angels, watched with boredom and envy.
However, both the Yankees and Angels applauded when Hidecki Matsui, now an Angel, came out to get his ring.
In this photo I shot at Yankee Stadium on April 13, Whitey Ford and Yogi Berra join Yankees manager Joe Girardi (#28) at the ceremonial table.

It was nice to see the Angels be good sports, even though it must have been painful for veterans of their 2009 team to watch.

McGwire out, Maris in (historic newspaper headline) #Yankees #NY #MLB #Bombers
Tuesday, January 12th, 2010With Mark McGwire’s admission that he used steroids to set his 1998 home run record, Roger Maris is still the 162-game home run champion. He hit his 61st home run at Yankee Stadium On October 1, 1961. Here’s a souvenir of that time that I saved, the New York Daily Mirror from September, 1961, when Maris hit his 56th home run at Yankee Stadium.

More historic images of Yankee Stadium to be posted here soon. Check back.

more World Series Photos: Yankees clobber Pedro! #Yankees #Yanks #MLB #Bombers #gifts
Sunday, December 13th, 2009Here are more of my photos of Yankee Stadium during the 2009 World Series. Here, during game 2 (Burnett vs. Pedro), Yankee Stadium fans were out for blood:

Then, later in the game, Matsui hit his first HR off Pedro Martinez. Below, Phillies’ right fielder Jayson Werth watches helplessly as Matsui’s home run ball (see the ball in upper left corner) falls into the Yankee Stadium right field stands.
