Actually, it turned out much better than I expected. After an all-day rain, it stopped right as I got out of the light rail train near the ballpark, and although it was cold (45 degrees at game time), it was an enjoyable, fast-paced contest. In addition, although the Yankees did beat the Rockies 3 to 2, I did get to see New York's famous closer, Mariano Rivera, for the first and last time (he retires at the end of the year). It was nothing like back in Chicago at the old Comiskey Park, sitting there in the cold and rain, drinking a beer as the White Sox were trailing by 9 runs in the second inning. You just can't buy an experience like that.
