3rd base
Their own. Generally if they sit in the home team's dugout, there's bound to be a fight or two. Seriously, it varies from stadium to stadium. Often the home team is on the 3rd base side, with the visitors across at 1st base. But there's no hard and fast rule. Sarcasm does not seem appropriate for answering a question.
Bill Dickey was the Yankees first base coach in 1955.
Mick Kelleher is the Yankees first base coach in 2012.
Through 2010, Derek Jeter holds the record for most base hits for a Yankee with 2,926.
Tino Martinez played first base for the Yankees from 1996 to 2001 and also in 2005.
Jason Giambi played first base for the 2008 Yankees.
Don Mattingly was the Yankee first baseman from 1982 to 1995. He played left and right field in his first couple of seasons with the Yankees until a full time move to first base. He then became the Yankee hitting coach from 2004-2006 and Joe Torre's bench coach in 2007. He ended his Yankee career with 2,153 hits. He is currently the Los Angeles Dodgers hitting coach. Don's number 23 was retired by the Yankees in 1997.
Because most major league teams, minor league, college and high school teams are on the first base side if they are the home team!! Some teams are on the third base side due to maybe superstition.. that being the Cubs are on the first base line due to tradition.
