Baseball has always been an event in New York. Even before this season the Mets and Yankees drew millions of fans each, while fighting for spots in the playoffs.

But now things have changed. With two new stadiums, both teams have world class venues to complement both teams.

The Mets have opened up Citi Field, a 41,000 seat edifice, which beings the fans closer to the action. Resembling Ebbets Field on the outside and playing like old Braves Field on the inside, the new building gives fans a modern facility with the quirks of an old stadium.

The outfield wall has various shapes and sizes and the huge outfield allows more for doubles and triples, rather than homers.

And the food is like dining before a Broadway show, with Shake Shack highlighting a fabulous selection of ballpark dining selection.

Up in the Bronx, the Yankees have been taking some heat about the price of their tickets, but besides the cost, new Yankee Stadium is definitely an upgrade over the old building. A swift wind goes out to right making this park play small than the old stadium, but with a power lineup, the Yankees seem to like that.

With wider concourses and numerous amounts of restaurants, the Bombers built themselves a great – yet expensive – facility.

But no matter the cost, it’s still New York and all things are more expensive, whether it’s Knicks tickets, Rangers tickets, Football tickets or even Raconteurs tickets,  you will pay up for them, but now at least the you will get bang for your buck at the ballpark.
