There is nothing better than that crack of the bat or the crowd roaring for their heroes in the diamond. But well, except for freebies! Who doesn’t love freebies when at the ballpark? The New York Yankees made it a tradition to give away something special for their fans and to say it created a major buzz would be an understatement.

Recently, Jazz Chisolm Jr. was flaunting Aaron Judge’s football jersey. It’s a cue, guys—the jersey is soon up for grabs next week, and the jersey is stunning!

Yankee fans, gear up for awesome rings, bobbleheads, and more!
There are plenty of giveaways that have already ended, and people were able to snag some lovely gifts. From the George Costanza bobblehead to the Gerrit Cole Cy young bobblehead and the Antony Volpe glove bobblehead. But now the next exciting event is, of course, Old-Timers Day. This will be the 76th Old-Timers Day for the team, and this time they are honoring the winners of the 2009 World Series. Some of the key players will be in attendance, including Hall of Famer Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera, and, for the first time, Alex Rodriguez. It will definitely be a monumental event.
As far as giveaways go, more such gifts are awaited by the fans who will make it to the stadiums. All the more perks to make it to the stands than watching it on television, we suppose. See your sports heroes and go home with a gift. Who wouldn’t want that?
