“Yankee Stadium is home to one of the most iconic franchises in
the history of American sports,” said Neville Ray, President of
Technology at T-Mobile. “Now, New Yorkers and people visiting from
across the country to catch a game have access to ultra-fast,
reliable 5G so they can share more of that experience.”
To celebrate the introduction of T-Mobile 5G to Yankee Stadium,
the Un-carrier and Major League Baseball sent a drone on a stadium
tour featuring legendary former Yankees Hideki Matsui and Bernie
Williams, then uploaded the drone footage to post-production using
5G.
The upgrades include launching Ultra Capacity 5G in select
sections and, for those with older LTE phones, doubling the
capacity for LTE in the stadium. Fans at Yankee Stadium will get
even more 5G upgrades for the 2023 season.
“We are excited to have the power of T-Mobile’s Ultra Capacity
5G network in Yankee Stadium and look forward to continuing to work
together with T-Mobile to enhance the in-Stadium experience for our
fans,” said Mike Lane, New York Yankees Chief Information Officer
and Senior Vice President, Technology and Broadcasting.
With the fastest 5G network nationwide and the fastest 5G
network in New York City, T-Mobile customers can do more of what
they love like share high-resolution photos, livestream and keep up
with their daily lives even faster thanks to the improvements.
