09:09 AM ET 03.25 | Orel Hershiser wants to save Dodger Stadium by double-decking the right-field pavilion? Not exactly, even if that might be the most striking feature of a stadium renovation rendering he released Friday. Hershiser, the pitching star for the Dodgers' last World Series championship team in 1988, said he hoped to use the drawing to share with prospective new owners a vision for the preservation and enhancement of Dodger Stadium. The core concept is to turn Dodger Stadium into a "futuristic electronic showcase" to enhance fan enjoyment, particularly in this era of mobile technology, according to a press release issued Friday. Yet some elements of the rendering appear jarring -- a double-deck pavilion in right field, demolition of the reserve deck down the left-field line, and an overall view beyond the outfield wall that closely resembles the cavernous home of the Texas Rangers.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is there not already a double-deck in right field? Sure looks like there's one in that pic.

I wouldn't call it "dramatic." "Dramatic" would be finding the folks evicted to build the stadium and finally paying them fair value. Now THAT would be dramatic.

The Dodgers, other than the Yankees, Cardinals and Red Sox, are THE primo franchise in MLB. Bud Shitlig needs to do anything he can to make this franchise successful again. Hershiser would be a great part-owner.

Hershiser also dropped a plug for 'saving" Dodger stadium during the Yanks/Sox game on ESPN the other night.

Fine - but don't come to taxpayers to pay for the renovations. If the team is worth $1.5 BILLION then the new owners can certainly pay for their own stadium.
