The SF Giants High-A affiliate is leaving PK (Patrick Kilkenny) Park, the result of the 2025 deadline put in place by the MLB to ensure all minor league parks meet player and patron requirements.
The people of Eugene, Oregon voted against a measure in 2024, which would have granted the Emeralds a $15 million bond to help build the new stadium. The new stadium was pitched in 2021 after the Ems won the High-A West Championship. The Emeralds, who shared PK Park with the University of Oregon baseball team, will now have to find a new home before 2027 due to new MLB guidelines.
