	John Thurman Field - Modesto Nuts
		Modesto is the California League’s longest tenured franchise, having fielded a team continuously since 1966, and from 1975-2004 Modesto was a logical affiliate for the Oakland A’s, whose ballpark is only 76 miles from John Thurman Field.
		But shortly after the Modesto A's claimed their first California League championship in 20 years, Oakland ended their 30-year tie to the city in September of 2004 and moved the team to Stockton, where a new stadium just happened to be opening.
		With a new affiliation, unique name and logo, the Modesto Nuts have shed years of tradition, with the exception of their ballpark, which has stood in its present location since 1952.
