Yankees Season Opener Summary
Event Overview: America's past time has certainly changed over the years, but one thing about baseball still remains: NY Yankees dominance. Watch as the Yankees take on the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, the first of many visiting teams at the start of the season, at the Home Opener at the new Yankee Stadium in the Bronx. Get your Yankees tickets for the season opener and all season long right here at NYCtourist!
What to Expect: Expect tons of energy from the sellout crowd at the Yankees Home Opener. The New York Yankees boast some of the most loyal - and vocal - fans in all of sports, and in true New York spirt, they have no problem voicing their opinions.
- Home Runs: The new Yankee Stadium is one of the most hitter-friendly ballparks in baseball. Despite the cold weather, expect a few balls to sail out of the yard at the NY Yankees Opener.
- History: New Yankee Stadium is filled with tributes to the great history of the New York Yankees. Check out Yankee Museum in Center Field before the first pitch at the Yankees Season Opener.
Inside Knowledge: Tickets to the Yankees Home Opener are some of the hardest to get all year - even more so if their division rivals, the Boston Red Sox, are in town. But, regardless of who the first opponent is, we recommended buying tickets to the Yankees Season Opener well in advance, or be prepared to pay well over face value.
Event Hints:
- Arrive Early: Get to the ballpark for the Yankees game opener 90-minutes early, and you'll be treated to batting practice by the men in pinstripes. We recommend hanging out in the bleachers to give yourself a shot at catching a BP ball.
- Dress Warm: The NY Yankees Opener will take place in early April, a few weeks before the warm weather makes it to NYC. Wear your favorite Yankees hoodie and beanie to the ballpark, and get ready for a chilly night in the Bronx.
- Stay Until the End: Even if it's a blowout, it's worth staying until the last pitch of the Yankees Season Opener has been thrown. Not only will you be able to move to a better seat closer to the field, but with the Yanks having last ups in the 9th inning, you never know what could happen.

Have a Fun and Rowdy Time at the Yankees Season Opener
For baseball fans, there are few things more exciting and hope-filled than their team's season opener. At the Yankees Season Opener, you will be able to witness the twinkle in the fans' eyes as they look forward to a long baseball season that will hopefully be filled with winning games.
Even if you don't have an intense love of baseball, you'll still enjoy the atmosphere and the rambunctious crowd at the season opener. You'll hear fans heckling the other team's players and the other team's fans. Occasionally, things can get a little out of hand, but, overall, the crowd is relatively civilized. This event only comes around once a year and is definitely worth the trip to New Yankees Stadium.
