Going to a Yankee's game is different than any other stadium. The fans are much more attunded to the game and how the game is played. You will not see Yankee fans leave early. What a great experience.

I like Boston a lot. I have been there quite a few times.

I went to Cooperstown. Very interesting town but in the middle of no place and it takes a long time to get there. Everyone should see Cooperstown at least once before they croak. The hall of fame will blow you away with the memorabilia they have.

Yankee Stadium was great!! Sabathia v. Verlander. A-Roid homers. Mariano closes it out. Yankees win 2-1. Here are some pics:

Actually...that was intentional. I want to experience EVERY stadium and the Yankees are one of them. It was very cool, but Yankees fans are nuts.

Here is Camden Yards. Beautiful park. The game was delayed by rain for almost an hour, but I didn't care. It was great.

Well, my summer of baseball fun is almost over. My wife and I got back about a week ago from Boston and Cooperstown. You will be happy to know that Juan is in the Hall of Fame twice. He has two bats on display. One is in a display for Latin American players and another in the small display for the Texas Rangers. I have attached pics.

Overall the Hall and the village of Cooperstown are both fantastic!! If you haven't been I would absolutely suggest that you go. Cooperstown sits on the tip of Lake Ostego and it is just quaint and gorgeous. The main street is lined with Baseball card shops that have a ton of memorabilia and old stuff. The only bad thing is that it is really slanted towards the Yankees, Mets and Red Sox.

Then we went to Fenway and saw the Red Sox play the Tigers. The experience of Fenway is incredible, but the place overall is a dump. All in all though it was very cool. The fans are insanely passionate about their team and I have never heard anything like the crowd singing Sweet Caroline in the bottom of the 8th inning. All I can say about that is "Wow."

Check out the pics.
