Spring begins when pitchers and catchers report… right around Valentine's day every
year. That means that Scottsdale Stadium is home to professional baseball from
February 15th until March 30th, when the teams break camp to go north to begin
their season. This is usually the end of most Spring Training baseball stadiums
in Arizona. At Scottsdale Stadium however… baseball continued here throughout
the season as the Triple-A Phoenix Firebirds announced that they would be leaving
Phoenix Muni (where the Firebirds had played for most of their existance)
to begin full time play at the new Scottsdale Stadium in 1992. |
