ANAHEIM, CA – Angel Stadium is upgrading the visuals available to fans who recently cheered the Los Angeles Angels on to their third straight American League Western division title with HD display systems from Panasonic, continuing the installation that was underway during the 2009 season. In all, 350 Panasonic HD plasma and LCD displays were installed to give fans a better view of the game and promotional messaging throughout the ballpark. A 20mm Large Screen LED board, measuring approximately 35 feet high and 47 feet wide, was also included in the display system. It delivers images on the team's Big A message board, which sits adjacent to the 57 Freeway and can be seen by people riding in more than 84 million cars every year.
"Baseball is one of the most advanced sports in terms of applying cutting edge technologies to further engage fan participation and appeal to the sport's immense international audience," said Jim Doyle, president of Panasonic Enterprise Solutions Company. "The Angels organization sets a great example of further enhancing the fan experience throughout Angel Stadium with the latest advances in display technology. When fans attend Angels' games, they will be entertained by an impactful video experience that is powered by Panasonic."
"Panasonic has a reputation for performance, quality and value that is firmly entrenched with consumers," said Dennis Kuhl, chairman, Angels Baseball, LP. "We felt it important to provide our fans with display systems that live up to the same high expectations that they have when viewing HDTV in their homes. As the leader in HDTV systems technology, Panasonic was the natural choice for our display system upgrade. We are excited about the upgrading of our display systems with Panasonic, and look forward to providing fans with the best in HD imaging moving forward, particularly for next year's All-Star Game here in Anaheim."
