Buster Posey's appearance at Giants' FanFest in West Sacramento, alongside commissioner Rob Manfred's recent visit, showcased the evolving landscape of baseball at Sutter Health Park. As preparations intensify for a busy season, fans were treated to a glimpse of Posey as the new chief baseball officer while he interacted with enthusiasts. This season marks a significant transition, as the Oakland Athletics and Sacramento River Cats share the stadium before the A's move to Las Vegas. Critical changes are underway to facilitate major league play, amid fans' excitement and some concerns about readiness for the upcoming games.
It's crazy, Giants outfielder Heliot Ramos said, staring out from a second-level suite overlooking the field he treaded for parts of two seasons. The grass had been torn up. A John Deere tractor was positioned in left field. The scoreboard, the batter's eye and parts of the outfield wall were missing. I thought it was going to be pretty much (done), but not even close. They'd better be close. The season's about to start soon.
Rob Manfred at the ballpark Wednesday, with the commissioner commending the great job they have done making changes necessary to host major-league games, in a statement to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
