Question Best way to get Yankees tickets for a June game?

We'll be at the Manhattan Club from June 21-28. Since we get in the afternoon of June 21 there is only one game that we could possibly attend- June 22- and I'd love to take my 12 year old son while my wife and daughter do other things. I checked on the NY Yankees web site and it looks like tickets are sold out. Craig's List is full of ticket brokers and seats on Ebay are either not too good or expensive. Anyone have any ideas how we could get two good seats for a reasonable price?

I recently used Ebay

How about this:

This is the seller I bought from- He's a professional seller- you can contact him, and he might be able to get you something:

I would try stub hub. Its pretty easy to search the sections you want to be in to find tix quickly. Unfortunately you don't have a ton of options. There are scalpers up there but I dont know that I would trust anyone. I have had friends come back with some of the most beautiful counterfeits I have ever seen. I actually haven't had trouble with yankees tix this year. But you happen to be there for a June day game with a giveaway for the kiddies.

Mets are playing the Seattle Mariners on 6/23-6/26, then the Yankees from 6/27-6/29.

Good luck with the Met/Yankee series, but, I guess it could be done.

A Mets game is another good option but I was hoping to go to Yankee stadium. It looks like there are lots of tickets on Stub Hub so that's certainly a possiblility. Thanks for the ideas and keep them coming.

I have SF Giants tickets this Friday night- we have a father/son group of 24 going- and it's hard to unload the few extras at or below face value this year. It seems like the Yankees are a more popular draw!
