New Yankee Stadium formally opens

Thousands of die-hard Yankee fans descended on the team's new $1.5 billion stadium for its formal opening Thursday.
The last time a Yankee Stadium opened, Babe Ruth starred and the ballpark quickly became the house he built. Eighty-six years later, a new Yankee Stadium made its debut.
Ultimately, the day ended on a down note as the home team lost to the Cleveland Indians. But fans say there are plenty of games left to make new memories at the stadium.
