Yankee Stadium: Predictions

Not sure if you follow sports, but it was hard to miss the recent thrashing(s) that took place in Yankee Stadium.

Given that home runs in the new park are up 250% from last year (currently averaging 5 homers per game in the first 5 games played there this season), it would not surprise me in the least if:

1) There is some sort of lawsuit against the architect, design firm, construction company, etc.

-OR-

2) There's some legislation floated about standardizing the existing and/or future designs of ballparks such that they all play in similar manners.

Just putting it out there...



But seriously, if I were a Yankees fan, I'd be a bit ticked off right now.

It came in the mail on Friday, and the weather turned nice enough this afternoon to test out the new guy in the yard. Here are some of the results:
