Its primary use is for baseball, and is the home field of the Las Vegas 51s Triple-A minor league baseball team, an affiliate of the New York Mets. Also, Cashman Field was home to the Triple-A World Series from 1998 until 2000. Cashman Field opened in 1983, which makes it the second-oldest stadium in the Pacific Coast League and the third-oldest stadium in Triple-A baseball, and has a maximum capacity of 9,334. It was named for James "Big Jim" Cashman and his family, who have been Las Vegas entrepreneurs for several generations. The field is adjacent to Cashman Center, an exhibit hall and theater, operated by the Convention and Visitors Authority. Cashman Field was featured as a landmark in the video game ''Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas'', in the city of "Las Venturas". ==Major League Baseball usage== The facility saw its first professional baseball game on April 1, 1983, when the San Diego Padres faced the Seattle Mariners in front of 13,878 fans. The Cashman Field attendance record of 15,025 was set on April 3, 1993, for a game between the Chicago White Sox and Chicago Cubs. The stadium hosted Oakland Athletics the first 16 home games as part of the season due to renovations taking place at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum. In addition to AAA baseball, Cashman Field hosts at least one Major League Baseball spring training game annually. The Los Angeles Dodgers made three straight Cashman Field appearances from 2001–2003 and returned in 2006 and 2010. In 2005, the Cubs and Mariners played two games to celebrate the Las Vegas Centennial (1905-2005). The Cubs made six straight appearances (2005 through 2010). The 2014 games, dubbed Major League Weekend, featured two games between the Chicago Cubs and the New York Mets. Cashman Field has been suggested as a temporary stadium in the city's efforts to woo either a Major League Baseball expansion team, or an existing team desiring to move. The stadium would serve as home field until a permanent facility could be built. It had come up in the city's talks to lure the former Montreal Expos, Florida Marlins, and Oakland Athletics. However, the park would need considerable expansion, particularly in seating capacity, in order to host a team. The substantial costs which would be incurred in expansion and construction of a new stadium, as well as MLB concerns over Las Vegas's legalized gambling, have so far kept the city's proposals from achieving success. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cashman Field」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
