The New York Yankees will play 14 games in beautiful and historic Yankee Stadium, while the New York Mets will play 16 home games in Citi Field. Both of these teams were buyers at the trade deadline and will be playing with playoff ready intensity coming down the stretch.
August also sees the National Football League begin its preseason schedule. This is an excellent opportunity to get to know the team for cheaper than regular season prices.
