Yesterday's heavy fits of rain weren't enough to keep over 48,000 fans from heading up to the Bronx and watching the Yankees pick up their first (unofficial) victory in a 7-4 win over the Cubs. Robinson Cano got things started with a two-run homer in the second, one of three for the Yanks, who also got home runs from Hideki Matsui and A-Rod's replacement, Cody Ransom. The team's big new bat Mark Teixeira was still getting his bearings in more ways than one. On top of going 0-for-3 with two strikeouts, he said of the new building, "I've gotten lost two days in a row on my way to the stadium and I don't want that happening Opening Day. We'll work on that." Returning fan favorite Hideki Matsui shared his take on the new ballpark: "I feel like they brought the field from the old Yankee Stadium and brought it here."

went to the game today and the stadium is a new version of the old but lacks all of the old stadiums character and the P.A. system went out in the 5th inning and everyone left it was ridiculous
It was windy as fuck :(
Those of us that had high level seats ended up just walking around at field level taking shots and watching the game from a warmer place.
To hell with The Yankees. Go Boston!
