Since the 1920s, baseball has been called “America’s Favorite Pastime.” Although some may say that distinction now belongs to football, or maybe even watching TV and playing video games, there is no doubt that in early spring true fans are excited when their favorite players report to training. Florida now hosts 15 Major League Baseball teams for this annual ritual and the pre-season games attract over 1.5 million people. This is Hammond Stadium in Fort Myers where the Minnesota Twins play their Grapefruit League games.
