Sutter Health Park

Sutter Health Park is a ballpark in West Sacramento, California. It is the home of the Sacramento River Cats of the Pacific Coast League (PCL) and the temporary home of the Athletics of Major League Baseball (MLB). Known as Raley Field from 2000 to 2019, the facility was built on the site of old warehouses and rail yards, across the Sacramento River from the California State Capitol. It is directly adjacent to downtown Sacramento.
The $46.5 million stadium was built in eight and a half months, but extended periods of bad weather forced the River Cats on a season-opening one-month-long road trip, as completion was delayed by 45 days. The completion time, however, was estimated to be about two years. The home opener was played on May 15, 2000.
The stadium is one of the few professional sports facilities in the nation built without a public sector contribution. Although constructed using bonds financed by the River City Stadium Financing Authority, bond payments are paid from ticket, concession, advertising, and other revenues, not taxes. Because the $46.5 million project cost was too large for the host city to finance, Christopher Cabaldon, in his first term as mayor of West Sacramento, recruited Sacramento County and Yolo County to join his city in a joint-powers agency which became the stadium financing authority.
The stadium has 10,624 permanent seats and grass berms in both right and left fields for a total capacity of 14,014. Its original capacity was 14,611 and was decreased to 14,414 in 2005 with the addition of a party deck. It further decreased in 2010 with the opening of the Diamond Club behind home plate. The stadium has 2,798 club seats and 750 seats in 36 suites.
The initial naming rights for the facility were sold to Raley's, a regional chain of supermarkets which is also based in West Sacramento, for $15 million over 20 years.
The ballpark hosted the 2005 Triple-A All-Star Game in which the Pacific Coast League All-Stars defeated the International League All-Stars, 11–5.
There was discussion of the Sacramento Mountain Lions, an American football team in the United Football League, using the field during the 2012 season. A final agreement to this effect was announced on August 6, 2012. The UFL, including the Mountain Lions, abruptly shut down operations in the middle of the 2012 season.
On July 18, 2013, Raley Field hosted a soccer match, a friendly featuring Mexican side Dorados de Sinaloa and Premier League side Norwich City F.C. The game finished 3–0 to Norwich, with goals from Luciano Becchio, Anthony Pilkington and Josh Murphy. The match's attendance was 14,014.
As part of the Golden State Hockey Rush, Raley Field hosted a minor league hockey game between the Stockton Heat and the Bakersfield Condors of the American Hockey League on December 18, 2015.
The ballpark was renamed Sutter Health Park after the 2019 season as part of a naming rights agreement with Sacramento-based Sutter Health.
On April 4, 2024, it was announced that the Athletics of Major League Baseball (MLB) will play at Sutter Health Park from 2025 through 2027, with an option for a fourth year pending the team's move to Las Vegas.
The ballpark underwent renovations for the Athletics, including a new batters' eye, lights, and home clubhouse behind the left field wall.
The Sacramento River Cats will continue to play at the ballpark, playing home games while the A's are away and vice versa.
On March 31, 2025, the Athletics played their first home game at the stadium against the Chicago Cubs, falling 3–18 with Cubs' catcher Carson Kelly hitting for the cycle in front of 12,192 fans.
