Inhaltsangabe

Spring training maven Alan Byrd gives the play by play on each of Florida’s 17 spring training stadiums (two teams share a park), from getting the best seats to getting autographs, to what to do before and after the game. The book devotes a chapter to each of the parks, with details on seats, eats, autograph opportunities, parking, shade, programs, souvenirs, and the like, along with a listing nearby hotels, restaurants, sports bars, attractions, and outdoor activities like fishing and golf.

In addition, fans looking to build an entire vacation around spring training will find five great itineraries, each focusing on a particular theme or region (for example, Spring Training History). All the itineraries offer options like theme park visits and days at the beach to keep the non-fans in the family happy.

In the Foreword, former Major Leaguer Mike Stanley shares his own Spring Training memories.
