At some point in my mid-twenties I came to the terrible realization that I had been following baseball for about a decade and was, in-fact, a Yankee fan. This is after years of being a hipster/punk that was too cool for anything so stereotypically American (and about a year of following the Padres out of a half-assed attempt to support what I consider to be the greatest city in the country). Fuck it tho, I'm a proud Yankee fan and honestly too old to give a fuck about what the generation under me thinks.

Getting back to a more positive note; I shot this with the panorama function on my girlfriend's Olympus Stylus Tough-6020. Its odd how well it lines up toward the top of the picture, but so poorly toward the bottom. I gotta give it a good review though. Knowing that if I drop it in a river, or fall on it off a boulder, it'll still probably work is pretty reassuring. Especially since technically, it's not really mine.

And don't think because this post is pretty Yankee heavy that there's gonna be long, one sided discussions on Robinson Cano's OBP or Rivera's stats vs left handed batters in July on Thursdays since 2004. This is an outdoor blog, but told from my perspective. Its gonna get a little personal now and than, but I'll try to stay on track the best I can. Just be happy there aren't any pictures of waterfalls for once.
