Can’t even imagine how hot those summer games would be

It's odd they would make it a "partially retractable roof". Why not fully retractable with the Vegas summers? Hopefully the AC system is good!

I think they will get decent attendance

Why's that?

I think so. I think a big majority of it will be visiting fans. I mean what group of guys wouldn't want to come in and watch their home team play in Vegas

they can fully close it

According to the article it's going to be partially retractable so in my eyes that meant that it's not fully retractable so it wouldn't be able to close all the way. Sounds like I'm wrong about that

Meanwhile if you drive north of Downtown Vegas you will see 1,000s of tents side by side on the sidewalks for miles. Don't invest in any type of treatment or housing for those people. Let's get a f**** baseball team!!

you don’t understand the design, the partially retractable section is so you can close the stadium all the way or see the Las Vegas strip. The roof over home and part of the infield is static.
