The City of Henderson in Nevada attempted to convince the Arizona Diamondbacks to move to Southern Nevada, according to a report in the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
The report, which includes records obtained by the newspaper, show an attempts by the city to coax the Diamondbacks from Phoenix to Henderson.
But discussions with the organization stalled, according to the report.
“While a proposal for an Arizona Diamondbacks ballpark has not moved forward, the city of Henderson would welcome conversations with other major league franchises that may be considering a move to a different market," a statement from Henderson about its attempts to lure the Diamondbacks said.
