Since George Steinbrenner has decided he doesn't have enough money and needs to tear down The House That Ruth Built to make way for a shopping mall, I knew I needed to go to my first Yankee game during this most recent trip to New York. They played the Kansas City Royals and despite a pretty early 8 - 0 lead, almost blew it by coming out on top 8 - 5.

Unfortunately, I forgot to put sunscreen on and ended up looking like a lobster.

On a side-note, we DID get to witness Hideki Matsui's 100th homerun as a Yankee (though it's hardly consolation for having missed A-Rod's 500th due to it falling on Shabbat).
