At the new new Yankee Stadium you'll find the Yankees museum. It's a nice place to kill some time when you're freezing in April. I wish the Mets would tap into their own history for something like this.
You get to type the name of your favorite player into a screen. I picked Lee Mazzilli of course. That tells you where you will find his baseball on the wall of baseballs.
My fellow fans believe there is a ball from "every player" that played for the Yankees. I don't know if that is accurate, but there sure an awful lot (could it be 100 years worth though?) and I did look for obscure players.
The museum is also where Munson's locker now resides. I think that was a good call. Munson's locker really isn't all that interesting to look at it, but it's still cool.
You can also sit in a modern style locker and use the digital display to put your name on the locker. Lots of kids were snapping pictures there.
For 100 years of history and all those championships and hall of famers I thought there would be a lot more to the museum. There's really not much. The balls, some old seats from days gone by, Munson and a modern locker. While the balls are interesting, I wouldn't wait on a line for more than five minutes.
I'd really like the Mets to rip off this idea, and I offer a free consultancy if they'd like to do it right.
