Selig Wishes A's Ballpark Situation Was Resolved During His Tenure

Bud Selig in his "last scheduled visit" to Oakland as MLB Commissioner "lamented Tuesday that the A's quest for a new stadium will remain an unfinished item on his to-do list." Selig said, "Do I wish it would have been solved? Of course I do. I wish it had. And I understand people's frustration. But is there anything I could have done differently? I don't think so." He also said, "This team needs a new ballpark. (The Coliseum) reminds me of County Stadium in its final days, and of Shea Stadium. And that's not a compliment" (SAN JOSE MERCURY NEWS, 8/20).
