1956 Yankees Home Schedule

Up until 1979 the date was not included on New York Yankees Grandstand & Bleacher tickets. Once you have figured out the year of your ticket using the Grandstand Ticket Stub Dating Guide, you will need to figure out the game that the ticket is attributed to. Correctly attributing the game number on a ticket to the game played will effect the value. A ticket stub will increase in value due to a significant event, or player milestone. A hitting or pitching milestone by a noted player such as a Home Run by Mickey Mantle or a shutout thrown by Whitey Ford will have added value.

This New York Yankees Home Schedule is a list of home games to help attribute the number on a ticket to the game(s) played. In 1956 the Yankees were scheduled to play 154 games. 77 Road games, and 77 Home games. Tickets for games that were rained out were voided. If the "Make Up Game" for the rain out was added to another scheduled game to create a double header, the ticket number of that scheduled game was used for admission to both games. If the rain out game was made up on an off day, the ticket issued for admission to that game featured a Letter for the Game No. For a scheduled double header, the first game number of the two was used on the ticket for admission to both games.
