Tampa Bay Area Spring Training

New York Yankees — Tampa

George M. Steinbrenner Field has the same dimensions as Yankee Stadium, down to the inch. It was insisted to be so by “the Boss,” who, as the story goes, phoned the Bronx from Tampa during construction and had an employee go to the outfield wall with a tape measure during a storm. 2024 will be the Yankees 29th year at the Tampa stadium.

Detroit Tigers — Lakeland, FL

Publix Field at Joker Marchant Stadium, home of the Tigers since it opened in 1966, is the second-oldest ballpark in the Grapefruit League. No team has called one city its spring training home as long as the Tigers, who have been playing there since 1934 with the exception of a few years in Evansville, Ind., during World War II. Remodeled to look like Comerica Park in Detroit, this is a tradition-rich ballpark to watch baseball. Links: Detroit Tigers spring training web site

North Port is home to Warm Mineral Springs, where slow-walking waders are almost cult-like in their rhythmic slog around the spring head. These healing waters are a big attraction for Europeans, who call it “Chudo Ozero,” or Miracle Lake.
