Commuting

So my normal route home from Long Island is to take 295 to 278 W to 87 N, where I get off at exit 4, which is Yankees Stadium.  So, now that baseball season has started, and I get home around 6:30 pm, and the Yankees game starts at 7:05 pm, I knew I needed another route to get back to the UWS.  So yesterday in the car I use Google maps and my GPS and fiddle around and find another route.  I follow it out, and it seems fine, but whaddya know, the exit I get off on from the highway happens to be the exit for the Mets' Citi Field!  Just can't win when you live in NYC.  Luckily there was no game-related traffic, but I'm not sure if it will stay that way for long.  Although I'm guessing the Yankees are more popular than the Mets, so maybe I'll stick to the Mets' route.
