If you drive, it should take about three hours. It's a straight shot down 1-87 (NYS Thruway). I'd get off at Suffern, take 17 south to Rt 4 east to the Geo Washington Bridge. Then get on the Cross Bronx exp way. Right after you cross the East River, take the Major Deegan south to Yankee Stadium.
Figure 3- 3 1/2 hours (without tie-ups).
The Base Ball Hall of Fame is in Cooperstown. Take 1-90 to I-88 west. That's after you go south to the Albany interchange from Saratoga. Take 1-88 to the first Oneonta exit (Emmons/Colliersville) then north on State Route 7 to Cooperstown. That trip should take no more than an hour and a half from Toga.
If you're headed to NYC from there, figure about 3 1/2 hours as you have to go back east before you go south.
I could tell you another way where you'd save 1/2 hour but it takes too much time to type. Safe trip!
