review 1: They were trying to catch a ghost, but it wasn't really a ghost. Some boys were trying to sneak into Yankee's stadium so they could watch the game without having to pay. They went through a vent cause the vents were huge. It felt like cold air and like a ghost was in the stadium. How they got in was one of the people - his father was an air conditioner and they were air conditioning the stadium and he took some of the keys so they could unlock the vents.
review 2: After I read Ballpark Mysteries #1: The Fenway Foul-up (A Stepping Stone Book(TM)) by David A. Kelly, I knew young readers would eat up this new series like a box of Crackerjack. And as soon as I got my hands on Ballpark Mysteries #2: The Pinstripe Ghost (A Stepping Stone Book(TM)), I knew I was r... moreight.This time around, Mike and his cousin Kate are in the most famous ballpark in America--Yankee Stadium for a spring weekend series against the Seattle Mariners.

Suddenly, everyone seems to be talking about the ghost of Babe Ruth and whether or not he'll show up this weekend. Mike and Kate are determined to find out and start unraveling clues as they begin to meet some of the characters hanging around the new stadium.Just as in Ballpark Mysteries #1: The Fenway Foul-up (A Stepping Stone Book(TM)), young readers will enjoy reading along as Mike and Kate don their super-sleuth caps and explore one of the world's most famous ballparks. Kelly weaves in just the right amount of interesting facts about the stadium and sets the scenes so well, you'll feel as though you're soaking up the sun and breathing in the smell of hot dogs and popcorn. Dugout Notes at the back of the book introduce young readers to 'The House that Ruth Built' and fun facts like how Babe Ruth sometimes liked to wear the same underwear for days because he didn't feel like changing it. Now these are the facts every young Yankee fan should know! less
