Spring Training in Tampa


It's been awhile since my last post. I just returned from a trip to Savannah and Tampa where I got to witness my first Yankees spring training game. The game was on Thursday, March 13th against the Pirates. This was the game that the Yankees signed Billy Crystal to a Minor League contract for his 60th birthday. Granted he was cut at the end of the day, it was by far one of the most gratifying experiences. I had incredible seats on the first base line, 3 rows from the field (front row for the final 3 innings). Legends Field was everything I thought it would be, and more! Next year, I am definitely planning on seeing more than 1 game. Even though the Yankees lost, I have some AMAZING memories from my time in Tampa. Pictures to come shortly.
