Places to play: Moda Center, home to the Trail Blazers, gives Portland an NHL-ready arena. Though the state Legislature passed a $150 million funding proposal for a baseball stadium 12 years ago, the market failed to land a team. The city lost its Class AAA baseball franchise six years ago, when it opted to convert its ballpark to accommodate soccer and football but not to fund a replacement stadium for baseball.
