There seems to be a certain rite of passage for a young boy as he makes the transition from childhood to a genuine Yankees fan. There is no mistaking the brand new Yankee pinstripes and it takes a very special set of ears to hold up his new hat. He's still too young to understand the strategy and the stats. He's there to bond with his dad.
Eventually, he'll grow into the hat, but for now it's not so much the thrill of the game as it is the thrill of the moment, the moment his dad said, "Hey son, ya wanna go to a Yankees game?" Only a Red Sox or Mets fan would turn that down.
