Chick Fewster was the first person to bat in this Yankee Stadium. Brian Roberts was the last person to bat there.

Here’s a way to connect the two:

Chick Fewster played with Alex Ferguson for the 1923 Boston Red Sox.
Alex Ferguson played with Bobo Newsom for the 1929 Brooklyn Robins.
Bobo Newsom played with Bobby Shantz for the 1952 Philadelphia Athletics.
Bobby Shantz played with Fred Norman for the 1964 Chicago Cubs.
Fred Norman played with Tim Raines for the 1980 Montreal Expos.
Tim Raines played with Brian Roberts for the 2001 Baltimore Orioles.

Here’s an interesting part of this: All of the above players, sans Fred Norman and Brian Roberts, played for the Yankees at some time in their career.
