Joakim about to throw a strike!

New Kauffman Stadium

New Kauffman Stadium

The Royals renovated Kauffman Stadium, a ballpark with a rich history, for the 2009 season. Fans have raved about the stadium’s new look. So has Joakim.

“They did an awesome job on the stadium,” he said. “More fans have come out, and its a really good time.”

The stadium seems more fan-friendly. It has the sports bar, a new scoreboard and the Diamond Club.

As far as the player amenities go, the Royals redid the clubhouse in 2008, so nothing needed to be done there. It remains as spacious and as comfortable has it’s always been.
