  • Solar Energy Hits the Major League
    Summer 2007: Solar Energy Hits the Major League http://www.renewableenergyaccess.com/rea/news/prints... March 29, 2007 Summer 2007: Solar Energy Hits the Major League The AT&T Park will be first Major League Baseball stadium to sport a photovoltaic solar system when completed in July. by Sara Parker, Staff Writer San Francisco, California [RenewableEnergyAccess.com] Although modest in terms of its size, the logistics of designing and overseeing a potential 120-kilowatt photovoltaic (PV) solar array for a Major League Baseball (MLB) stadium are a bit trickier than one might think. First there's the issue of balancing the need to achieve the proper solar access with the baseball park's unique structure and surfaces -- since situating an array in center field is pretty much out of the question. It doesn't help matters that the stadium is the AT&T Park in San Francisco, which means special design consideration for seismic activity in the area has to be taken into account. Next, custom-fabricated structural steel must be ordered and added to the facility to support the large arrays, scaffolding setup, cranes brought in, and oh, by the way, don't forget there's a ballgame on Tuesday. "It's quite a challenge logistically even though by today's standards it's still a modest-sized array," said Steven J. Strong, a noted solar advocate, author and the founder of Solar Design Associates. Strong's Massachusetts-based company was commissioned to design the array and oversee the installation process, which is expected to be completed by the time the MLB All Star Game rolls around in July.

Williamson was playing left field during the April 2018 game against the Washington Nationals when he crashed into the bullpen mound while running after a foul ball at full speed, according to his complaint. He then hit the left field line wall head first, he says. The resulting concussion ended his career and left him with lifelong maladies including vision problems, nausea, sleeping troubles and mood swings, he says. "My life hasn't been the same since suffering the injury," he said in a statement. And it all could've been avoided had China Basin Ballpark Co. LLC, which owns San Francisco's stadium, placed the bullpens where they belonged: off the field of play, Williamson says. "Everyone's career ends at some point, but to have it taken from me because the bullpen mounds were unnecessarily placed on the field is very hard to cope with," Williamson said during a press call Tuesday. According to the suit, CBBC knowingly put players at risk by placing the bullpens on the field despite knowing they were potentially dangerous.

Oral history is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well- informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Evelyn Danzig Haas dated March 6, 1995.

Nagel, Associate Professor, Department of Sport and Entertainment Management, University of South Carolina Matt T. Brown, Associate Professor, Department of Sport and Entertainment Management, University of South Carolina Daniel A. Rascher, Director of Academic Programs & Associate Professor, Sport Management Program, University of San Francisco Chad D. McEvoy, Assistant Professor, School of Kinesiology and Recreation, Illinois State University Abstract Major League Baseball (MLB) rules restrict the movement of any franchise into another’s territory. These territorial rules are designed to protect each team’s potential local revenue sources as well as to provide stability throughout the league. Recently, Major League Baseball approved financial compensation for the Washington Nationals move into the Baltimore Orioles’ territory – primarily because it was in the best interest 1 of MLB even though it hurt the Orioles. However, the Oakland Athletics were unable to even negotiate a potential compensation plan for a move into the San Francisco Giants territory, despite the apparent financial benefit the move could have provided for every other league franchise. The Athletics are already located within 15 miles of the Giants, and their potential 40 mile move to San Jose, California would not add a new team to the San Francisco Bay Area; rather, it would simply be a move of a current team to a different location within the metropolitan area.
