Game Thread (156): The Final Game at Yankee Stadium September 21, 2008

After 85 years, Yankee Stadium is closing its doors. Twenty-six championships and 39 pennants later, this is it. The ceremony was amazing, with everyone from Bernie Williams to a Babe Ruth actor present. Who will win this game? Who will hit a homer, just as Babe Ruth hit one in the first game in the House that He Built? Fittingly, Big Game Andy is around to pitch the final game.
