Today starts the 2015 Arizona Fall League season and for the 2nd time in 3 years I will be there. I will be attending 6 games from October 14th to 16th and the Bowman Hitting Challenge on the 17th. In 2013 I saw Kris Bryant, Corey Seager, Stephen Piscotty, Delino DeShields, Marcus Stroman and Jeurys…
In case you didn’t hear Josh and Kelly got to spend an entire week in Phoenix, AZ enjoying the warm weather, having fun with their families and of course watching baseball.

Favorite Stadium Planning for the trip I was most excited to see Camelback Ranch. I have been there a few times and it’s by far my favorite Spring Training Stadium but for the sole purpose of this trip I’m going to say Hohokam Field in Mesa was my favorite. It always had the least amount…

Although many have heard of this league and knows that it exists very few actually attend the games. An attendance of 300 to 400 is pretty average for these games. Although these players…
