When we think of iconic Yankee Stadium, we remember jam-packed crowds cheering Hall of Fame players. But back in the 1960s, struggling Yankee teams played in a half-filled ballpark. We’ll look at the unique story of broadcaster Red Barber, and how his final game was in an empty Bronx stadium.  Writer David J. Halberstam spins the compelling tale. Also- NBA Training Camps are underway and the excitement is building in Sacramento where the Kings will tip-off in their new Golden 1 Center arena.  SB Nation reporter Blake Ellington just toured the venue and has an update. Plus, Stadiums USA's Mark Madorin looks at beer sales at college football stadiums and what's next for an Oakland group looking to build a new stadium in the bay area.
