Renderings of Raimondi Park after renovation work at the cost of $1.6 million in West Oakland. The Oakland Ballers played their first home game there on Tue Jun 4, 2024 (renderings from the Oakland Ballers)
On That’s Amaury News and Commentary podcast:
#1 Amaury, today is the home opener for the Oakland Ballers Pioneer League as they open up at Raimondi Park in West Oakland. The game has been announced as a sell out.
#2 Amaury, how surprised are you that the home opener was a sell out and is this a statement by Oakland fans that interest in baseball in the East Bay is still alive in well?
#3 How much do you see the Ballers being a replacement for the void the Oakland A’s will leave as this is their last season in Oakland?
#4 There has been talk that the Ballers wanted to bring back Jose Canseco as a promotional move and as this team is selling out could really raise interest. How clever of a marketing move would this be bringing Canseco back for a couple weeks to join the Ballers?
#5 The Ballers last month released rendering for their future ballpark at the cost of $41.6 million to renovate Raimondi Park. The Ballers are scheduled to play 48 home games and are carrying their games on KTRB 860. On the face of it they look like their very prepared in this inaugural season?
