Truist Park and the surrounding Battery is a model that has been praised by organizations across multiple sports since it's opening in 2017. Atlanta Braves fans flood the Battery and Truist Park routinely, and it's success has created a template that other teams are eager to follow.

The team that everyone has pointed to that is in need of a new stadium is the AL East Tampa Bay Rays.
