T206,
I genuinely do like the Jeter ticket variation and I agree that it wouldn't feel quite right to have A-Rod on the ticket that you would collect for this historic moment with your son (although they were your actual seats!).
I was actually most surprised by the fact that the Yankees have $15 season tickets...
Enjoy your DJ3K moment with your 6 year old son!
I remember my 1 year old son's 1st ML game. We were given 1st row seats at Comerica Park in 2001 for the last game of the season. Shane Halter (who?) of the Tigers played all 9 positions in 9 innings. Pretty cool!
Amazingly, my son, now 11, attended a AAA minor league game where another player (Kevin Hooper) did exactly the same thing- 9 positions in 9 innings.
FWIW, that's kind of the way it's gone with him though. He caught a no-hitter the 1st time he ever played catcher. Bizarre!
