The house that Ruth built.
The place where Maris hit number 61.
The place where Reggie Jackson hit three home runs.
The place where David Ortiz hit a walk off 12th inning home run in the 2004 ALCS (had to go there, I'm a sox fan!)
I can confidently say that it is a venue that is on most sports fans "places to see before I die" list.
And today, I made it there.
Yankees/Rays, 1:05, Yankee Stadium, The Bronx, NY.
It was amazing, even with the Yankee loss.
And mostly, I could feel the history of the place. Many of the defining moments in sports history with their cheers still echoing through the concrete fortress, reminding all of the extent of America's pastime.
