'Jeopardy!' Contestants Whiff on Yankee Stadium Category

Jeopardy!/Twitter

The Yankees are among the most beloved teams in baseball, but a few Jeopardy! contestants struck out on their knowledge of the Bronx Bombers.

Thursday night's episode of Jeopardy! featured an entire category dedicated to Yankee Stadium. Things started off well with the $200 clue: In 2009, Jorge Posada hit the first home run in the new Yankee Stadium; in 1923 the first in the old park was, naturally, hit by this man.

Mason, the show's leader, correctly guessed Babe Ruth.

The first one was a pretty obvious clue, but things went downhill quickly after that.
