At Yankees' new park, he touches all the bases
As Yankee Stadium is pelted by a violent downpour that politely waited until the team had left town on a week-long road trip, Lonn Trost sits behind a large, cluttered desk in an office that overlooks the field from behind home plate. With each point he makes about the construction of the new stadium, he scrambles to find a supporting document among dozens of reports -- thick as phone books, held together by metal clips and strewn throughout the room.

Yankees COO Lonn Trost at the new Yankee Stadium
The issue of the moment is ticket prices, and he wants to -- needs to -- be accurate, so he searches for the numbers, even though he could probably recite them. Maybe it's this report. He scans the cover page. No. Plop. He drops it back onto the floor at the foot of a multicolored seating chart. This one? Nope. Plop. Back on the desktop. This one. No. Plop.
He grabs another ..."Here it is," he says, flipping it open. "Some front-row seats will cost $2,500, but 55 percent -- more than half -- of the seats will be $45 or less. Ninety-one percent will cost $100 or less. We made sure that 24,500 seats will not have a price increase. What you pay here, you'll pay there."

It’s throng together that incredulity don’t yearn for that adherent to convey title it, but that admirer is motion there having paid a substantial not very of poorly off for a ticket obscure [another] follower picks place up suggest a buck-and-a-half and sits the
