    as long as they get a hit. Now it's 7 innings.

    I tip my cap to Morrow. very impressive. First start of his career. I had him on my fantasy team, and he got me some saves. he's got great stuff. He's Seattle's Joba

    damn, I thought Abreu's shot was gonna split the outfielders. way to keep the season alive, ARod, thanks. Is 1 9th inning hit too much to ask for?

    oh ok
    well then we're gonna have to pay for it somewhere else like food, bev and merch. I'm pretty sure knowing there will be no playoffs this yr(which means no money going towards the new stadium) everything will have an extra couple of bucks added on. TEN dollar beers here!!!
    $6 sodas
    $7 hot dogs
    15 bucks for a program

    NOTHING.................... priceless

    Maybe, but because the Yanks are responsible for $51 million a year in debt service. Baseball's 2002 collective-bargaining agreement permits teams to deduct stadium debt service and construction costs when calculating revenue sharing. Bottom line? Baseball's 29 other teams will effectively bear a third of the cost of the Yankees' new ballpark.

    No problem. I remember Peter Gammons pointed that out last year and I just did a quick google search and found it.

    That's part of the reason why I see the Yanks payroll going up past the 220 mil mark it's at this year.

    there's way to get around that six dollar soda, seven dollar hot dog and 10 dollar beer. Just support the businesses in the neighborhood instead of giving the money to the Yankees.

    Exactly, my lady and I at a HBO championship fight (Diaz vs Pacquiao) in Las Vegas left the fight because of the price of the beer. Six hours of boxing $8 a pop that's a lot of money. We left Mandalay Bay and walked 2 miles off the strip to a local store next a seedy motel and bought 2 six packs of Dos Equis for $15+. Drank some and snuck the rest in.

    At O's/Fenway/DC/Marlins games I buy local or in the neighborhood and hardly ever at the game.

    me too, you can eat a really good meal for under 10 bucks in the neighborhood around yankee stadium if you get there early enough, obviously it's tough if you're coming right when the game starts.

    It's all relative isn't it? Four beers set me back $48 at the Wiltern :eek: They were $7 each at the pre-party (normal bottle).

    nice job on that find Solat. I gotta admit, the salary things getting absurd...220 mil..jesus

    I support the dollar menu at BK's up the block from the stadium ;)
    ANd I don't drink beer so I'm good to go on that. 14 dollar bleacher seats and my yankee game experiences ususally won't exceed 30 bucks. Its a beautiful thing
