7/29/08: S/WB Yankees vs Syracuse Chiefs

On a day where Ron Guidry was signing for free, Ian Kennedy was starting pitcher, and the opener to a Yankees series, it was pretty easy to decide to go to the Chiefs side pregame. It also helped that I had a ticket to get Guidry to sign before most of the public, but I was still too late to get a shot at the Yankees side pregame. Things didn't go too bad pregame. The best part was the fact that all 4 pitchers charting were willing to sign easily. I was able to get Kei Igawa, Chase Wright, Jesse Litsch, and Brett Cecil there. Kind of funny that less than a week ago, only Kei was in Triple A. What a difference a few months makes with him, too. Last time he charted, he was mobbed. This time, I was one of only a handful who asked him. After the game was awful. Barricades were put up, and I was having a hard time telling faces on the Yankees side.
