The increased security measures are the result of MLB's continuing work with the Department of Homeland Security and are designed to elevate and standardize security practices across the game. The added security measures are in addition to bag checks that are conducted at all MLB ballparks. MLB-‐Mandated Procedure for Entry to Yankee Stadium in 2015 • Metal detectors are located at all Yankee Stadium gates, and all visitors to the Stadium will be subject to screening. Once visitors have been screened and had their bags checked, they will have their tickets scanned. • Before proceeding through metal detectors, visitors will be asked to remove cell phones, cameras and any large metal objects from their pockets and place them in a small plastic container for inspection. Additionally, all bags and their interiors will be visually inspected by security personnel at a screening table alongside the metal detector. Please note that only MLB-‐compliant bags (soft-‐sided, measuring 16 inches by 16 inches by 8 inches or smaller) will be permitted inside the Stadium. Individuals will be able to watch their belongings throughout the screening process and can pick them up at the end of the table once they have proceeded through the metal detector. The removal of belts, shoes and jackets is not required. • Per MLB requirements, all visitors, including children, must be screened. Infants and toddlers may be carried through walk-‐through metal detectors, and children who are able to walk may be asked to go through on their own. Individuals who are unable to utilize a walk-‐through metal detector or who opt not to use one have the option of being checked with a hand-‐held metal detector or receiving a physical pat-‐down. • If a walk-‐through metal detector alerts a security officer to the presence of items that require further inspection, visitors will be directed to the side, where they will be screened via a hand-‐held metal detector or physical pat-‐down. When the items in question are discovered, individuals will be asked to display them and/or allow a security officer to examine them. At this time, a security officer will determine whether or not these items will be permitted in Yankee Stadium. • Any item or property that could affect the safety of the Stadium, its occupants or its property shall not be permitted into the Stadium.
