The Yankees retired the number 8 twice. It was in honor of two Yankees catchers, Bill Dickey and Yogi Berra.

Who did the New York Yankees play in the last game at the old Yankee Stadium?

No, a fair ball has never been hit of Yankee Stadium. Mickey Mantle came the closest twice, hit right roof shots that hit the facade (1956 and 1963) coming within a few feet of leaving the stadium. Also, Josh Gibons and Jimmy Fox and Barry Bonds hit long shots that stayed in the stadium. Hack Greenburg hit a ball out of Yankee Stadium but it was declared just foul.

The ride is around 20 minutes.If you are traveling on a weekday between 4 and 6:45 PM:Take the Uptown B train from 34th Street-Herald Square to 161st Street-Yankee Stadium. The ride will be about twice as long (40 minutes), as the B is a local train, while the Dis express.The B train only stops at Yankee Stadium during morning and evening rush hours in peak directions, when the D isn't stopping there. The Downtown (Manhattan-bound) Dskips the 161st Street-Yankee Stadium stop from 6:15 to 9 AM on weekdays, and the Uptown (Bronx-bound) D skips the Yankee Stadium stop from 4 to 6:45 PM on weekdays.
