most likley standing room or squeezed into the bleachers which just long benches , The Letter A and the pricing tells me all I need to know confirming what you already know these are Mickey Mantle Day
I will now be able to Clarify the finding , thanks for sharing these images

I do remember it was packed! We stayed way longer after the games were over as my father had business there. That is why I guess we were able to pick up so many stubs and in those days everyone just threw them on the ground.. Al
