SBJ Power Up: the MLB’s Minecraft memorabilia play

USOPP has added three new partners: Saatva, Archer, and Pennymac, bringing its total agreements to six since the start of 2024. These partnerships are in the lower tier of USOPP's sponsorship levels. Earlier in the year, USOPP announced a second-tier partnership with AECOM. M&T Bank Stadium will undergo a three-year renovation project with a budget of million, which includes the installation of over 12,000 square feet of LED displays. ANC is managing this installation, with work starting this summer to complete it before the 2025 NFL season. Key upgrades include a 216-foot video display at Gate A, fine-pitch signage in field-level clubs, new signage for the Hospitality Village, and the replacement of over a hundred TVs with larger screens. After the 2025 season, a 2,300-square-foot transparent mesh LED display will be added to the stadium's northwest plaza, along with additional high-resolution displays at various locations.
