Shea Hey: San Jose ballpark plan is taking shape

After attempts to build a new stadium in Oakland and Fremont, the owners are taking a new tact. Now the target is San Jose, but there's no news conference this time. Just a series of renderings displayed last weekend at the San Jose Jazz Festival and posted Tuesday on the Baseball San Jose blog (baseballsanjose.com).

Shea Hey: San Jose ballpark plan is taking shape

In August 2005, Lew Wolff held a news conference to unveil plans for a new A's ballpark just north of the Coliseum.

It fell through.

In November 2006, Wolff appeared at a much glitzier news conference - this one with Bud Selig and Billy Beane and a bunch of giddy Cisco Systems Inc. executives - to unveil plans for a ballpark in Fremont.

That fell through, too.

Now the target is San Jose, but there's no news conference this time. Just a series of renderings displayed last weekend at the San Jose Jazz Festival and posted Tuesday on the Baseball San Jose blog (baseballsanjose.com).
