Rangers Ballpark targeted for new video board
ARLINGTON -- The Rangers are ready to add a new video board to the Ballpark
in Arlington that will go on the roof of the Home Run Porch and be almost six
times larger than the current one.
遊騎兵球場將新增video board(該翻成視頻板還是螢幕?),會比現在的大六倍。
The video board will be part of a $13 million upgrade to the Ballpark
announced by the Rangers on Friday. The project also includes a new video
board for center field above the office building that will replace the
current outdated matrix board.
遊騎兵隊宣布新的video board將會是13M鎂球場生級預算的一部分。
Both boards will be high-definition quality. The video board on the
left-field wall is also being converted to high definition.
新的boards將會是高畫質的。
"This is a project that will significantly impact every fan in the ballpark,
regardless of where you are sitting," Rangers CEO Chuck Greenberg said. "All
fans in the ballpark will have access to one of the high-definition boards."
遊騎兵隊CEO Chuck Greenberg表示不管坐在球場任何地方,新的video board將會帶給球
迷震撼。
The project also includes a badly needed major upgrade of the Ballpark's the
concourse, concession stands and stores to allow fans to watch the game even
when they are not in their seats. A digital-media network will also be
installed that will deliver multiple content on 10 high-definition channels
to more than 800 Sony LCD monitors that will be installed in the park.
這項計畫也包括加裝球場的數位媒體網路。
"This is the first of a series of improvements that we have planned over the
next few years," Greenberg said.
The long-awaited video board on the Home Run Porch will be 5,040 square feet.
The old video board was 864 square feet. The new video board will basically
take up the entire space of both the video board and the advertising
billboards that currently surround it.
The video boards can operate as single giant displays or be divided into
multiple windows to show a variety of statistics, features, graphics and
videos.
新的video boards可以成為一個巨大的展示螢幕或是分割為多個視窗,包含各種成績,照
片,圖畫和影片。
"This is the biggest board we could put in there without completely
restructuring the Home Run Porch and the biggest board we could put in there
without running the risk of changing the wind currents," Greenberg said.
"It's the best board with the best technology and the biggest size possible."
There had been discussions during the previous ownership tenure to put a new
giant video board in front of the seats on the third deck in left field. That
would have also reduced the seating capacity and created greater demand for
tickets. The Ballpark has a seating capacity of 49,170, the sixth highest in
the Major Leagues."
這在老闆經營權交換時就討論過,這巨大的video board將會放在左外野第三排的座位前。
但也會減少全原本排名大聯盟第六的球場觀眾容納數。不過這卻會帶來球迷更踴躍來買票
進場看球。
Greenberg's group rejected that plan, preferring to keep capacity at current
level and not wanting to cover up seats with a video board.
但是Greenberg團隊否絕了(上一段)的計畫,希望能維持球場觀眾容納數。
"That would have looked like a band-aid," Greenberg said. "We thought it was
important that anything we did fit with the aesthetic design of the ballpark.
This was a project that we did with a lot of study and analysis but also from
ideas and suggestions we received from the fans. This is a project that an
incredible amount of time, energy and went into."
All of the video boards will be operated out of a new control room being
installed next to the press box. The new system being installed will allow
total integrated control of all boards and monitors throughout the park.
The new sound system will include replacing and upgrading current speakers
and adding new ones in needed areas. Digital menus will also be installed in
all permanent concessions that will be able to reflect current prices on all
items, including those being discounted for certain promotions like the Blue
Light Special.
The entire project is expected to be completed and in place by Opening Day.
The company providing the boards is Daktronics, the world's largest supplier
of large screen video displays, electronic scoreboards, computer-programmable
displays, digital billboards and control systems. The company is
headquartered in South Dakota with manufacturing plants there, Minnesota and
New York.
這項計畫會在明年開幕前完成。而提供video board的公司會是Daktronics。
