I don't think he hit the first HR at Yankee Stadium. The first WS HR maybe. Inside the park too, just like the first one at Ebbets Field.

I'll throw one more question out there about stadiums....
When Candlestick Park opened in 1960, which Willie hit the first Giant homer in their new home park?

My best baseball memories are of watching Casey's Yanks at old Old Yankee Stadium, meaning the pre-Steinbrenner fustercluck, back in the 1950s. I was a kid and he looked like he was older than sin; I never imagined that he had been young once and a ballplayer too. Supposedly Mickey Mantle was also surprised to learn he had played. "What do you think, I was born at 60?", Casey told him. Wonder if Mick ever saw his T210.
 1923 NY Giants [am not 100% positive but I believe Casey is in second row second from left]   Photo dated 1949  1951 Hollywood Stars scorecard   Photo circa mid-1950s
