THE MOJ: Good reasons to be stuck on Cactus League baseball
Experiencing games at Lambeau Field, Fenway Park, Madison Square Garden – everyone has that “dream trip” that they’re always working on.It’s a little known “Moj Fact,” but I’m a baseball junkie.
The longest drive you will have in the Phoenix area is if you are staying in Surprise – home of the Texas Rangers and Kansas City Royals – and want to catch an Oakland A’s game in Mesa. In that instance, you are looking at an hour – every other trip is less than that.I’ve been lucky enough to go to all of them and I have had a positive experience at each and every one.
Salt River Fields- home of the Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies – is a also popular complex and has all the bells and whistles of a modern stadium. Surprise and Goodyear’s biggest drawbacks are that they are on the west side of the valley and are an hour drive if you are staying in Scottsdale.
These are known as the ‘back fields’ and they are open to the public for free. If you wandered around the Mariners facility in 2020, you could have watched Julio Rodriguez playing a game on one of them. You also could stumble upon a star who is getting some extra work in a ‘B’ game.
