Yesterday I went to see the Staten Island Yankees host their crosstown rivals, the Brooklyn Cyclones, at beautiful Richmond County Bank Ballpark at St. George. (The Yankees won, 4-1.)
I couldn't help but notice that all visitors are greeted with a big blue blast of Irvin type (or something close). I asked my friend Seth Davis to snap a few shots for evidence; they are presented below.

Hey, nice one! Thanks for the pictures, too. I’m going to see if my typomane friend Paul Shaw can shed even more light on this.
