The Yankees are trying a new way of filling the stadium and it doesn’t involve just picking up a lefty starter or another lefty arm out of the pen — or sending Gary Sanchez to the disabled list to get his lazy playing out of the headlines.
No, the team is trying to jack up attendance with a recently introduced $49.99 Ballpark Pass.
The pass will get the buyer into all 16 regularly scheduled home games in August. (That means it doesn’t include the rescheduled Mets/Yanks game on Aug. 13.)
The pass is for standing room only — but since the Red Sox aren’t on the schedule, you can always become a squatter in an unsold seat.
Good luck. The Yanks are having a nice year at the gate, with average attendance at 43,204 — the highest it’s been since the 43,733 average in 2012.
