    Ok, I live in Sacramento. I does get very hot in the summer. But it cools off usually in the 60’s in the evening. There is this thing called the delta breeze which cools off the city at night. The river cats do play some Sunday day games but they are not well attended because of the day heat. The reason for the artificial turf is that both the A’s and the river cats will both be utilizing the field and and turf grass would never hold up for that many days of play. I imagine someone will be playing most days of the summer there

    If I were a Sacramento city politician or business leader, I would start immediately rallying the populous and other business leaders for the stadium and the A’s. This is Sacramento‘s chance to show MLB that they can successfully be the home of a team. They already have an NBA team, and it would be a longshot to get an MLB team, but this is their chance to shine.

      The first thing they should look at is Transportation and City development. Having the A’s there will cause major traffic jams, having walkable areas and reliable transportation to the stadium would be a huge help and more money for both West Sac and Downtown

      ​@@limpwhaleThere won't be any more traffic jams than there already are for River Cats or events at G1C. It's pretty quick and easy leaving Sutter Health Park on a game night. There's also plenty of lot parking as well as garages within a half mile of the stadium. There was also news just a few days ago that the city will have a shuttle service if you're parking in downtown garages

    Exactly, the smaller, more intimate stadium model would be for small market teams. My guess is that they will add seats to this stadium in Sacramento and love it. I owned a chain of restaurants. Many of my mid volume locations made more money than my urban, high-volume locations. Reason? Overhead. MLB is all about TV revenue now. Build the small park for $500-$700m tops.

    There should be a rethinking of the configuration of new stadiums, with lower capacity of 28-33k, with bleachers and/or grass berms in the outfield, or home run decks reminiscent of the older stadiums. Unobstructed seating is good in theory, but in practice you wind up further and further away. Wrigley Field has girders, which brings the upper deck in close, and which should be the template for new stadiums.

This was before baseball stadiums started decreasing capacity and 45k was the norm. The politicians wanted the Expos to stay in the Olympic Stadium until it was paid off and wouldn't sign off on any funding. Now, the Labatt Park that a lot of people thought was too small is a model for a lot of the renderings you show on this channel.

    There is another big problem as bad as the heat is in the past 4 or 5 years now lots of the country is being hit with smoke. We have to look at the fire and smoke map before even the weather. Older people cant be in the smoke. Sacramento has smoke today and yesterday and tomorrow. The bayarea has less smoke than sacramento. I wonder how many sporting events have smoke related issues?

    Attendance has been dropping for many well established teams. Smaller stadiums are a way to increase ticket prices and profits.
    Wilkes-Barre/Scranton has a very large AAA stadium originally built for the Phillies.
    The Yankees moved their Columbus AAA to this facility. Attendance is still weak.
    Ownership of the. AAA Phillies moved to Allentown Pa and built a much better smaller, friendlier Coke Cola Park.
    Attendance is up and the franchise is thriving in the Lehigh Valley.
    Sacramento has the market and a built in fan base.
    Why move to Vegas.
    An expansion franchise makes more sense for Vegas

    There are stadiums in the US that are both hot and humid. Sacramento is a dry heat and really is a non factor. People in the Bay Area are spoiled by their cooler temps that aren't a reality elsewhere, especially in the Midwest. I lived in the Bay Area, Pacifica, and Sacramento and you can play in this weather. Look at the River Cats.

Fuck Sacramento and Las Vegas and that's what's happening,this is the last year I'm a fan of both teams,as soon as the season is up I'm only sticking with the giants,I'll keep my A's gear for novelty but I will NOT support them in Sac or Vegas

    You need to go do some updated research Mr Depressed Ginger...Las Vegas officials announced that the new stadium fie the A's in Las Vegas is on track for 2028..
    Per the latest update, Steve Hill, president and CEO of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, affirmed that the timelines in place will be met.
    "They're coming and they've said they can finance this stadium," Hill said. "They are going to play baseball here in 2028. I frankly think it's just fun (for critics and social media content creators) to create speculative drama around it, and that's exactly what's happening.
    And you..Depressed Ginger are at the top of the list when it comes to exactly what he's talking about...smh

    Sacramento is more of a baseball town than basketball town. I actually think the A’s are going to do well there. And this is coming from an Oakland native.
    THAT SAID, a new ballpark in Oakland, full-sized, would be the absolute best option. The baseball doesn’t work in Oakland narrative is absolute garbage.
