Classic stadiums
-
Any new classic stadiums or still the same old ones with the polo grounds being the reward for collecting the other ones?

Kingdom is the collection
-
They add more classic stadiums?

I'm surprised no Oakland Coliseum

Wait, it's just completely gone. That's really surprising.

@JoeSelser_PSN Except for the Kingdome being a part of the G.O.A.T. Program, and the reward for obtaining all the Classic Stadiums instead of the Polo Grounds; nothing else has changed.

@LuvMyXBOX_XBL This is heartbreaking for me. It's bad enough these dirtbag owners of the Athletics verbally trashed their fan base, turned off any posting by fans on social media (even after they've left), and basically stopped caring about baseball. I have to assume MLB or the team owners are refusing to allow the Oakland Stadium in the game and that's just sad. Talk about scorched earth policy...

100% agree. I'm a lifelong OAKLAND A'S fan and won't be supporting them at all anymore. I had to decide on a different team to choose as my 'favorite' for this game and it was soul crushing to do.
I hate MLB the corporation right now but I love baseball in general too much not to play this game. The whole situation sucks. -

The whole situation sucks.With respect, put 100% of your anger against your local county and municipal governments. They played reindeer games with the A's for decades, and when the team was owned by Charlie Fenley, he played plenty of games with the fans and the local governments. Selling off the dynasty teams that won all those World Series titles was just awful.
However, the current ownership was forced to play in the worst MLB stadium by far, with plumbing systems routinely flooding the locker rooms and downstairs offices. That's a health hazard, and you have an MLB team having to put up with that! That's inexcusable.
Even if the A's had the budget to sign top flight free agents, they wouldn't have signed any because none of the MLB players wanted to play in Oakland Alameda Stadium. When compared to the other 29 venues you would play in, I can't blame the players one bit.
Alameda Stadium should have been bulldozed many years ago and replaced by something like what was planned at Howard Terminal and if the local governments had worked in good faith with the A's ownership, that is exactly what would have happened.
I give the A's great credit for tolerating the intolerable for many years and finally being forced to abandon Oakland.

Polo Grounds is unlocked in one of the My Legacy programs. You need to hit 15 career triples.
