Yankees fans are more raucous than the ones in the other places so far. The bleachers crowd starts the game by chanting the name of each player until he turns around and waves to them.
The in-game diversions on the video screen have that New York urgency about them. For example, in Philadelphia a trivia question might be, "Tonight's opponents are the White Sox. What city are they from?"
In New York, the question as I recall was, "What's Hideki Matsui's number plus the years Joe Torre has managed the Yankees divided by Ron Guidry's career ERA and multiplied by the square root of Babe Ruth's weight? Miss it and we'll kill you." The prize was a gift certificate.
