cmh6476 1,025 Posted April 5, 2024 albeit, temporarily https://www.kcra.com/article/sacramento-a-s-sutter-health-park-confirmed/60396053?fbclid=IwAR0iZF2HyCmzqsSexEUIDCltM53uJhgJG0N6llwKlGUR4V6zYQ8dVYjRRqg_aem_AeB1vUQugGyceswTuJUsJl0oxgPxLAlvCox4YDVY8Ys6Sff8uFHDWiIvZkdwEH8qTZ1gDOGQUCM4xeRLcFUHlVpk Quote “I’m thrilled to welcome the A’s to Sutter Health Park, where players and fans alike can enjoy a world-class baseball experience and create unforgettable memories,” Ranadivé said in a release. “Today marks the next chapter of professional sports in Sacramento. The passion of our fans is second to none, and this is an incredible opportunity to showcase one of the most dynamic and vibrant markets in the country.” Ranadivé later told KCRA 3 that he viewed the decision to bring the A’s to Sacramento as an audition for a permanent team. The A's will play at Sutter Health Park for the next three seasons — there is an option for a fourth season — as the team's permanent home in Las Vegas is not expected to be ready until 2028. The A's' lease in Oakland expires after the 2024 season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tree of Knowledge 1,855 Posted April 5, 2024 This is pretty pathetic There were initially some concerns about the West Sacramento venue not being able to hold an MLB-sized crowd being able to fit only 14,000 seats. However, the A's have only been averaging about 7,000 fans a game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thegeneral 3,208 Posted April 5, 2024 This is pretty cool I think. That Oakland stadium was the shittiest stadium I have been to in decades. They ran out of beer in my section and the urinals were just overflowing and pouring out of the bathroom. Watching MLB game in a tiny ballpark will be pretty cool.

A’s Coliseum was comically awful. Hard to believe MLB has put up with that so long. The new one they are building in Vegas looks very cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But here I am I’ll be planning a golf trip to Sactown to see the M’s play Oakland in September before they leave that stadium…both teams are out of contention and weather is hopefully a bit cooler. Was there a few years ago in July and it was hot, Africa hot. Has to be a decent course near there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
