The improvements are part of a $3 million makeover of the ballpark, instituted when the Modesto Nuts (High Class A; California League) signed a new 10-year lease for the facility in 2007.
New this season: two press-covered box-level decks, each holding 125 fans and including tables and a wet bar. In addition, the chairback seating in frotn of the two decks will be reserved for deck buyers.
Also new this year: the former visitors’ bullpen is now a permanent party zone, complete with beer garden and shaded seating.
