set it to whatever captures the scene. there is no magic formula. Meter the light, determine what you want it to look like and click the shutter.

go with a low ISO if you have a tripod, ~f8 or > if you want more DOF.

good luck

Wow - nice seats, right behind Jeter, Giambi, and Posada Nice shots, I am hopeful I will get up there this summer to say goodbye to the stadium.
