Spring Training Momentum Builds as Cactus League Kicks Off in Mesa
Cactus fields in Mesa are drawing renewed attention as the 79th season of Cactus League Spring Training unfolds, with 15 Major League Baseball teams training across 10 stadiums. Sloan Park, home of the Cubs, has become a focal point for fans bringing the energy of winter baseball into Arizona. Mesa also remains central to the Cactus League’s legacy, hosting key venues like Hohokam Stadium and Fitch Park—home to Athletics workouts and minor league development facilities. The continued visibility of Mesa’s baseball infrastructure underscores its role in supporting Cactus fields and sustaining the region’s status as a premier spring training destination.
