Looks like it's another "pile on the Yankees" day. The Times has a nice piece about how you're unlikely to get an autograph.
Jason Zillo, a Yankees spokesman, said that both players and fans were still
adjusting to the new space and that the Yankees were making efforts to better
connect players with fans. “Autographs are a part of that,” he said.
Inside the stadium on a recent Sunday, fans tried to get autographs during
batting practice, young children and their parents lining up against the
right-field wall and calling out to players as they warmed up. When Joba
Chamberlain, a promising pitcher known for being somewhat generous with his
signature, sauntered into right field, the crowd cried for his attention. After
a short warm-up, he departed without signing an autograph.
Among the disappointed were David Thoreen’s two sons, Sam, 9, and Henry, 13.
