2020 BALLPARK IMPROVEMENTS
Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark underwent a major transformation during the offseason as more than
8,100 seats were replaced following the conclusion of the 2019 schedule.
This marked the first total seat replacement for the ballpark since it originally opened in April 1998
and provides a fresh and uniform look throughout the facility.
Years of sun and weather had faded the original seats and now new “legend green” Hussey brand
seats stretch from foul pole to foul pole and into the upper club and terrace levels.
The original iron chair arms and end stanchions that bear
a logo commemorating legendary Oklahoma native Mickey
Mantle remain in good condition. They have been restored
and reinstalled to hold the new seat backs and seat
bottoms.
A complete field renovation took place following the 2018 season at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark.
About $2.5 million in improvements and renovations took place at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark prior to the
start of the 2019 season, including:
One of the most visible and extensive projects was the first field renovation
since the ballpark originally opened in April 1998.
The playing surface was removed, then rebuilt layer by layer, as new drainage,
irrigation, infield and warning track
material and grass were installed, utilizing
the latest technology.
This was the first full light replacement in the history of the ballpark,
and the new LED lights provide increased clarity for players and fans,
while also reducing energy consumption.
The new lighting system includes 160 downlights utilizing about 1,150
watts per light, and 18 ball tracker lights utilizing approximately 575
watts per light, meaning about 194,000 total watts are needed to
power the new system — an improvement of about 40 percent from
the original system.
The new lighting system is “instant on,” without any warm-up time
needed for the bulbs, allowing the lighting display to be synched to
music or included in the celebration of home runs or wins.
Funding for these offseason projects came from two key sources.
In 2017, Oklahoma City voters approved bond propositions as part
of the “Better Streets, Safer City” initiative. These general obligation
bonds covered the costs of the field renovation, field light replacement
and HVAC projects. The Baseline Patio was paid for by a city-instituted
facility fee included in all event tickets since 2014.

Although the RedHawks lost that first game, 6-3, in April 1998, the
fervor, sense of accomplishment and pride that beamed from Oklahoma
City residents when they first walked through the ballpark’s gates left
the city feeling like it had achieved a major victory that is still celebrated
today.

14 OKC DODGERS 2020 MEDIA GUIDE
HONORING 25TH ANNIVERSARY OF OKC BOMBING
April 19, 2020 marks a solemn anniversary in Oklahoma City’s history, marking the 25th anniversary of the
Oklahoma City bombing. On April 19, 1995, 168 people tragically lost their lives in the Alfred P. Murrah Federal
Building bombing just blocks from where the OKC Dodgers now play at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark.
The Dodgers have collaborated with the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum to honor the 25th
anniversary throughout the 2020 baseball season via four different initiatives to honor the Memorial’s efforts and
promote the “Oklahoma Standard.” The OKC Dodgers announced those plans and special events during a special
February press conference.
“We feel like there is a really important responsibility
our franchise and our organization can play in having an
active role in the Memorial’s efforts to remember the
168 lives lost and so many lives that were impacted,”
said Michael Byrnes, OKC Dodgers President/General
Manager.
In recognition of the 168 people lost in the Oklahoma
City bombing, the Dodgers will prominently display the
No. 168 on a wall pad in left field as a way of “retiring”
the number.
“We really think that this makes for a lasting opportunity
to continue the storytelling of the lives impacted from
April 1995,” Byrnes said.
Kari Watkins, Executive Director of the Oklahoma City
National Memorial and Museum, joined Byrnes at the press conference to show a mockup of the display.
“Thank you to the Oklahoma City Dodgers for this important tribute,” Watkins said. “Today memory is short and
people are on the go and for this community to pause and say, ‘we remember,’ says a lot to the people who lived
through it.”
Byrnes also noted that the Dodgers organization felt a particular connection to remembering the 19 children
whose lives were lost in the Oklahoma City bombing. In their honor, the No. 19 will be retired in the OKC Dodgers
Rookie League. Byrnes unveiled the number alongside Oklahoma City Parks and Recreation representatives
Melinda McMillan and Chris Lucas.
“This is a number that won’t be worn at all by any of the youth playing in the Rookie League,” Byrnes said.
“There will be a commemorative display set up at
Wheeler Park, our home of the Rookie League.”
The third element to be incorporated with the Dodgers’
2020 season is a commemorative jersey patch that will
be worn by the Dodgers players and coaches on the
field for all home games.
“It will be an important outward element of making sure
we have a constant memory of what went on in April
1995,” Byrnes said of the patch.
The fourth initiative involves 25 acts of kindness and
celebrating the “Oklahoma Standard,” which includes
acts of service, honor and kindness.
“Almost 25 years ago, Oklahomans rushed to provide
whatever support they could, building triage centers,
providing food to those who were providing services on the scene and extending a hand to those who were
suffering,” said Carol Herrick, Executive Director of the OKC Dodgers Baseball Foundation. “These acts of
kindness gave us comfort and a sense of community during a difficult time,” Herrick said. “That became known
as the ‘Oklahoma Standard.’ As our way of honoring those acts of kindness, the Oklahoma City Dodgers Baseball
Foundation will feature individuals, organizations and companies — 25 in total — that exemplify the spirit of the
‘Oklahoma Standard’ today.”
These recognitions will take place on the field for Dodgers games and also on the Foundation’s social media.
“Thank you, Dodgers. This is a fabulous day for the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum,” said Bob
Ross, Chairman of the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum. “We appreciate your support and really the
support of the entire community. Service, honor and kindness is the ‘Oklahoma Standard,’ so we are so glad to
hear you all highlighting that. It’s something that we really want to do in the 25th anniversary year.”

CIELO AZUL DE OKLAHOMA CITY
The OKC Dodgers will take the field as Cielo Azul
de Oklahoma City for select games in 2020 as
they participate in Minor League Baseball’s “Copa
de la Diversión®” or “Fun Cup™” for the third
straight season.
“During ¡Celebración Cielo Azul! we aim to create a gameday experience and atmosphere that
encompasses the vibrancy and uniqueness of our Cielo Azul identity,” OKC Dodgers President/General
Manager Michael Byrnes said. “We have worked closely with leaders in our local Hispanic and Latino
communities on how we can best celebrate our city’s diversity during these series and we welcome the
opportunity to show ‘Es Divertido Ser Un Fan’ — ‘It’s Fun to Be a Fan’ — in Oklahoma City.”
The LCDA’s mission is to improve the quality of life in the Latino community
through education, leadership, services and advocacy. The organization will
receive a $1 donation from tickets sold to groups and as part of a special
ticket package. Also, proceeds from a Cielo Azul jersey auction held during
the season will benefit the LCDA. More than $10,000 has already been
donated to the LCDA during the first two seasons of Cielo Azul combined.
The accent colors of red, gray and cream reflect the landscape that the team
and community call home. The primary and secondary Cielo Azul logos feature
the scissor-tailed flycatcher design as an additional tribute to the state of
Oklahoma.

resources to teachers, while motivating positive outcomes for
students across our state.”

Ballpark — an exclusive event for participating MVP students and teachers, as well as their families,
featuring STEM activities and appearances by OKC Dodgers players.
Participation in the MVP Program was initially only open to Oklahoma City Public Schools in 2017. After
a successful start, the program expanded in 2018 to include additional metro-area classrooms in the
Mid-Del, Putnam City, Edmond and Norman school districts. In 2019, program participation expanded
statewide for the first time and was used in more than 330 classrooms across Oklahoma as it impacted

device.
• Contract Selected - A player is called up by his Major League club. A player has his contract selected
(rather than being recalled) if he is not already on the MLB club’s 40-man roster.
• Injured List - MLB has varying injured lists based on the player’s position and injury. The 7-day
Injured List is limited to players who have endured a concussion or concussion-like symptoms.
For other injuries, position players must remain on the Injured List for a minimum of 10 days
and pitchers must remain on the Injured List for a minimum of 15 days. When a player is placed
on the Injured List, he does not count against a club’s active roster limit. When a player is placed
on the 60-day Injured List, along with having to sit out for 45 extra days, he is no longer counted
against an MLB club’s 40-man roster. The Minor Leagues have a 7-day Injured List for both
position players and pitchers.
• Assigned - A player is assigned to a new team within his organization or to his organization’s extended
Spring Training. A player is not considered “assigned” to a Major League club. It generally refers
to a player being assigned to a Minor League team, a Spring Training camp or extended Spring
Training.
• Optioned - A player is sent from his Major League club to one of its Minor League affiliates. When a
player is optioned, he remains on the MLB club’s 40-man roster. Position players must remain
with a Minor League affiliate for a minimum of 10 days after being optioned and a pitcher must
remain with a Minor League affiliate for a minimum of 15 days, unless he is recalled to replace a
member of the Major League roster who has been placed on the Injured List.
• Sent Outright (“Outrighted”) - A player is sent from his Major League club to one of its Minor League
affiliates. When a player is outrighted, he is removed from the MLB club’s 40-man roster.
• Designated for Assignment - When a MLB club designates a player for assignment, it allows the
club to open up a roster spot while it figures out what to do with the player. Most often a player
is designated for assignment so the club can open up his roster spot while it waits for him to
clear waivers. A club may also designate a player for assignment while it tries to trade him to
another club. A club’s 40-man roster must be full before a player can be DFA’d, and the player is
immediately removed from all rosters when he is designated.
• Released - An MLB club removes a player from its organization. Some players need to clear waivers
before they can be released, hence they would be designated for assignment first. Other players,
particularly those released from Minor League affiliates, need not clear waivers.
• Claimed Off Waivers - There are various situations in which a player may end up on waivers. It is
usually a precursor to the player being released, traded or reassigned to a Minor League club.
Any other team can put in a claim on a waived player within a certain time frame. If more than
one team claims the same player, the team winning the claim is determined by which claiming
team had the worst record in the same league (American or National) as the team that waived the
player and then, if no one in the same league claims him, the claiming team in the other league
with the worst record.
• Traded - A player has been traded from one Major League organization to another. Minor Leaguers
are not traded from affiliate to affiliate but rather MLB organization to MLB organization. The new
MLB organization can then assign the player to one of its affiliates.
• Restricted List - The restricted list is for players who are suspended because of failure to adhere to
the Minor League Drug Prevention and Treatment Program. It also may be used if a player
violates contact terms or fails to appear for a team or camp assignment. An example of the
latter is a foreign player who cannot join his team because of visa problems.
• Suspended - A player is suspended, usually for an on-field incident, and is not allowed to play. He still
counts against a team’s active roster limit.
• Temporarily Inactive List - If a Minor League player is away from a team for a few days because of a
personal matter, travel to an All-Star game, etc., and is not placed on the IL, he is placed on the
temporary inactive list for a minimum of three days.
• Bereavement List - A player is temporarily inactive to attend to a personal matter like a family medical
emergency or a death in the family. This can last from three to seven days.
