San Antonio residents, some on City Council push back on ballpark proposal

The San Antonio Missions' plans for a new $160 million ballpark and entertainment district picked up serious headwinds during a tense and, at times, rowdy City Council hearing Thursday afternoon. The project, which includes the construction of a 7,500-capacity ballpark along with commercial, entertainment space and a new residential tower, was first presented to council in Aug. 14 by the Missions' ownership council,  months after leaks about the project began circulating in the media.
