Theme: Transformation & Transition — In 2011, all five parks sat at key moments of change, identity shifts, or regional reinvention:

Safeco Field (Mariners): Hosting a team in transition post-Ken Griffey Jr., trying to rebuild after years of struggle.
PK Park (Emeralds): A new ballpark (opened 2010) symbolizing a fresh era for Eugene baseball and college–minor league collaboration.
Oakland Coliseum (Athletics): A team mired in stadium controversy and relocation rumors—a place stuck in limbo.
Raley Field (RiverCats): A success story in urban revitalization, bringing crowds to Sacramento’s riverfront area.
AT&T Park (Giants): The reigning World Series champions in 2011, showcasing the peak of transformation from underdogs to icons.

All five represent points on a spectrum of reinvention—places finding new meaning, relevance, or identity in the game and their communities.
