Really? No Baseball Thread?

Since we've discussed TT before in this thread:

Best general baseball and best Red Sox specific podcasts (if they exist)?

Do yourself a favor..a little or a bunch you will feel better after watching

Really hope the Phillies can go one further after losing in the World Series last year. The offense seems great just like last year.

Surprised Astros likely won't win the AL West after their domination of the division the last few years.

A's officially leaving Oakland after 2024, will play in Sacramento through 2027 until Vegas stadium is ready

Sutter Health Park seats around 14,000

This is it - the last season for the legendary A's at Oakland. Then it's off to a 15,000 seat minor-league ballpark in Sacramento for 2 years until their new indoor stadium is completed in downtown Vegas.

I can remember the days when Oakland had the Raiders & Athletics playing at Oakland Alameda Coliseum. A long history of success with these two clubs winning SBs & WS titles (9 WS championships!). The city lived for those two sports: It kept the spirit of the community alive & gave them pride. A's baseball in Oakland was analogous to Dodger's baseball in LA. Now they have nothing! Owners turnining their back on the fans & chasing the $$$ in Vegas.

Speaking on this I wonder what will happened to the AAA Las Vegas Aviators when the A’s move into town. Aviators have a nice stadium with good views from all angles of the ballpark and good food (the banana pudding is amazing). We just took our son to his first baseball game tonight, and he had a lot of firsts.

Padres playing barely .500..only thing going for them is they play better on the road than at home!! Dodgers have the tools!!

And that post above makes me feel uncomfortable!! Banana pudding at a baseball game!!! How does that even happen!!! That said if I get a chance to try it I will!!

Phoenix Giants!! Only team that ever matters!!

Don’t knock it till you try it. It’s the best dessert at the ballpark.

My grandmother used to make banana pudding pie, a pie crust, filled with banana pudding w a bunch of sliced bananas and topped with whipped cream ( Cool Whip?) If I don't have diabetes I should

I don’t know whose grandma made this but I wanted to take some Togo when we had it last night. But all the food is good at the park, we try doing a new stand each visit.

I have 2 venues, ball park and cross country motorcycle travel, 3 hotdogs no problem.. Mustard, relish and occasionally onions, rest of the time hotdogs are not my thing. Also breaking peanut shells has little to no appeal unless I am watching baseball.

That's pretty cool. I remember taking my son when he was a little kid to his first ballgame to see the Rockies at Coors Field (he's 24 & all grown up now. Lol). He's a bigger baseball fan than me & takes in a few games every year.

I wonder if the Aviators would relocate to the Bay area somewhere? (I don't think they would stay in Vegas?). For the longest time the Rockies' AAA affiliate was located in Colorado Springs - about an hours drive from Denver. But they're now located in Albuquerque (Isotopes). Last I checked, there's no AAA affiliate in the Springs leaving a nice ballpark empty - so maybe the Aviators to the Springs?
