@msbellows Is this the new field? 👀 I moved away to Alaska years ago, but I was definitely a little heartbroken when I heard the old place had burned. 😞

@msbellows My family used to go to Ems games at their old ball field when I was a kid!

@mivox Oh, Lord, I still want to cry when I remember the old Emeralds stadium. We used to walk down there for games when our girls were little, 2003-2007. They belonged to the kids' club and ran the bases before every game, and we adults drank local microbrews before that was a thing. Those were perfect evenings.

@msbellows Is this pic the new facility? It’s very… Seattle-modern looking.

@mivox No, this is Hillsboro -- Run Tonkin Field. But the new Eugene facility (which they share with U of O baseball) is similarly sterile.

@msbellows That’s a damn shame.
