Default Can I carry at Banner Island Ballpark (Stockton)?

I have season tickets to the Stockton Ports (Oakland A's High A Minor League Team) and have my CCW.
However, the Ports website Stadium Rules/FAQ doesn't address CCW, nor are there any posted signs prohibiting CCW. I'm leary to ask as it may prompt a new policy and downtown Stockton's not the best place to be unarmed!

There are lots of LEO at the game, but I anticipate if I ask them they'd be an automatic no since Stockton PD and San Joaquin are not terribly CCW friendly, and they may not be well versed on the legalities. (Thinking of the SFPD - "CCW is illegal in the San Francisco" thread, here.)
Can anybody give me a definitive answer?

Does their website address weapons? If it has a prohibition against weapons, they could refuse to admit you, or ask you to leave if your weapon is discovered. If you refuse to leave, you would be trespassing.

This issue has been brought up quite a bit on this site. Carrying at Anaheim Stadium has been discussed ad nauseum here. So, I'll just say this, since I don't have any personal experience with the Stockton stadium. If they don't have metal detectors and they are not patting you down, then carry. There are no laws against it and their policy doesn't matter. I'm not going to mention what would happen if they find out you are carrying, since all of us here know what it means to carry concealed.

No, their website does not address any sort of weapons at all.

No metal detectors. And yes, I am discrete when I carry .
