Ninth Annual 2005 Phillips 66 Big 12 Baseball Tournament Tournament Quick Facts, Notes Ninth Annual 2005 Phillips 66 Big 12 Baseball Tournament Tournament Quick Facts, Notes Site: SBC Bricktown Ballpark (Capacity: 13,066) Location: 2 South Mickey Mantle Drive, Oklahoma City, OK 73102 Opened: Apr. 2, 1998 Previous College Games: College games’ history began with the 1998 Oklahoma-Oklahoma State Bedlam Series and has continued through the ’98-2001 and 2003, ‘05-07 Phillips 66 Big 12 tournaments. The stadium also has been the site of several non-conference games involving Oklahoma and OSU as well as the annual location for the Sooner State Conference Tournament. Stadium Highlights, Facts and Figures: When greats like Joe DiMaggio, Babe Ruth and Mickey Mantle first stepped on the field, baseball was played in legendary ballparks that brought the fans in close to the game. The Redhawks' home, SBC Bricktown Ballpark, brings it all back. The tradition…The history...The excitement…Every seat is intimately close to the action--bring your glove! The concourses are open to the field, providing a great view even before you get to your seat. The low, 8-foot outfield walls will allow plenty of spectacular catches. home runs. “The Brick” has many amenities from its state-of-the-art video scoreboard the concept is strictly old-fashioned. After all, it is all designed with only one thing in mind: the fan. SBC Bricktown Ballpark is reminiscent of many of the country's older parks, with an asymmetrical playing field and intimate seating configuration, hearkening back to when baseball was a game, played in a park. The unique field configuration is intended to provide for the home field advantage as well as add to the excitement of the game. Sluggers will enjoy a 325-foot left field porch, while the right field power alley still allows the pitcher the outside of the plate. Fan seating is brought close to the field of play, while the seating bowl itself wraps gently around the field, improving lines of sight. The Brick is brought into the Bricktown context through the melding of established Bricktown imagery, thus providing an established presence while remaining a festive and people-oriented environment.

  • A's News Clips, Wednesday, November 11, 2009 Base Question
    A’s News Clips, Wednesday, November 11, 2009 Base question: Who's on 3rd? Susan Slusser, Chronicle Staff Writer Billy Beane of the A's spent the general managers' meetings in Chicago this week combing for third-base possibilities because the team does not have an automatic option there next season. Infielder Adam Kennedy might not return, though he is interested in doing so; six-time Gold Glove winner Eric Chavez is trying to come back from his second back surgery; and top prospect Brett Wallace is likely to need more seasoning. It's also unclear if third will be his position in the majors. So while Oakland is looking in general terms for good young players on the left side of the infield and at the corner outfield spots, the emphasis is third. "Certainly it is," Beane said, "with Adam being a free agent and, with Eric, we've made it clear that it would be great if he can come back but we'd be foolish not to look at other options." The A's are unlikely to spend much money on free agents. Beane said the emphasis continues to be on young players, so if Oakland adds pieces, they're more likely to come through trades. Oakland has weighed the merits of probably every young third baseman around, but from a sheer speculation standpoint, Kansas City might be willing to deal Alex Gordon or Josh Fields, and if the Angels re-sign Chone Figgins, Brandon Wood might be available. Oakland is talking to Kennedy and to another of the team's own free agents, however: right-hander Justin Duchscherer.
