NEW YORK (AP) -Derek Jeter stepped out of the dugout and gazed up at those massive grandstands, five booming decks of blue-and-white splendor reaching high into a clear Bronx sky.
Welcome home. This is the new Yankee Stadium.
“It’s a lot better than I think anyone even expected,” Jeter said. “You know, I tried to come here, not ask too many questions about it, just wanted to experience it for the first time. But this is – it’s pretty unbelievable.”
Jeter and his teammates moved into their fancy new digs Thursday, working out at the $1.5 billion ballpark before a dazzled crowd of more than 20,000.
The place is a baseball palace, with luxuries everywhere for players and fans alike.
