Hanley at the Stadium

Hanley Ramirez of the Florida Marlins is the starting shortstop for the National League in tonight’s MLB All-Star game. This is a photo I took of Hanley the last time he played at Yankee Stadium (2006).

This was my first and only trip to Yankee Stadium (the day after I photographed at the pit of an Indy race) and while I see where the history is moving, the Stadium itself did not feel like the holy shrine that most national (read: NY-based) journalists consider it. That being said, the photo angles from the upper-deck were great (as seen in this photo).
