View From The Seats: Staten Island Yankees

My first trip to Staten Island in a very long time to see the Staten Island Yankees take on the Brooklyn Cyclones. This is quite an experience out here with all-you-can-eat deals and a really small, nice stadium. It's also been a beautiful night for baseball.

The Baby Bombers currently trail 6-5 despite 5 errors committed by the Cyclones. Recently called up Gary Sanchez is 1-4 (he should be 2-4 but got "Jim Joyce'd" at first base).

If anyone hasn't been out to this Stadium, you should make a trip out here. It's an easy (and free) trip from Manhattan on the Staten Island Ferry, and my group ticket (need a group of 10 for a group--we have 17) includes all-you-can-eat, unlimited soda, a free hat, a great seat, and a message on the board for a measly $18 a ticket. And the view of Manhattan here is great. Plus you have a great chance to see future Yankees like Sanchez or Cito Culver. Great experience so far here in Staten Island.

  1. This was my first minor league baseball game - and it was great! Really a fun event- who knows if we'll be seeing some of these (VERY YOUNG) guys in the major leagues.

    Yes - next year a suite!
