Summary
North Carolina is poised to make baseball history, aiming to land a Major League Baseball team with a $4 billion stadium plan fueled by roaring fan support after the Hurricanes’ championship run. With MLB commissioner Rob Manfred targeting two new cities before 2029, Raleigh is stepping up alongside Nashville, backed by key political figures and billionaire investors like Tom Dundon — who owns the Hurricanes and Trail Blazers — and Marc Lasry. Dundon’s team is even open to relocating an existing franchise if expansion doesn’t work out. The dream of bringing America’s pastime to the Tar Heel State is officially in motion.
