As a longtime Giants fan (went to many games at Candlestick starting as a toddler in the early 70s), a long-ish resident of the Pacific Northwest (I moved to Oregon in 1994), and a HUGE supporter of both the "MLB PDX" movement and the Volcanoes... I will be devastated if MLB cuts ties with Salem-Keizer. And I think it's disgusting that the SF Giants themselves as well as the owners of the Volcanoes have no say in the affiliate's future. Awful. Just awful. Holding my breath waiting for the answer.

I've actually never been there -- which is they reason I'm always careful of giving opinions on the facility.
