In a widely expected move, a group that includes both San Antonio business executives and Major League Baseball legend Nolan Ryan has formally reached a deal to buy the San Antonio Missions, team officials said Wednesday.
The deal would put the Missions under local ownership for the first time since the 1980s. It also sets in motion the team's probable move from the aging Nelson Wolff Stadium to a still-to-be-developed downtown ballpark. “Local ownership is essential to ensure the long-term success of the Missions for our community,” said Hill, a Spurs owner who will serve as the point person in the Mission’s relationship with MLB. “Our group is excited to bring passionate and experienced local ownership to our professional baseball team in San Antonio and carry on the tradition of baseball in San Antonio that started in the 1880s.
