Arizona announces Spring Training schedule
D-Backs will play 11 games in Valley
Arizona Diamondbacks
PHOENIX - The 2001 World Series champion Arizona Diamondbacks will begin preparations for defending their title with a 35-game Spring Training schedule announced Wednesday.
Arizona's spring schedule opens on Friday, March 1, with a game against the Chicago White Sox at 1:05 p.m. That will be the first of 15 home games at Tucson Electric Park, the Diamondbacks' spring-training headquarters since the franchise's inaugural season in 1998.
The Diamondbacks will play 11 games in the Phoenix area, starting on March 4, when they visit the Milwaukee Brewers at Maryvale Baseball Park and ending on March 29-30, when they host the Chicago Cubs in a two-game set at Bank One Ballpark. The teams will play at 7:05 p.m. on Friday, March 29, and then return for a 1:05 p.m. game on Saturday.
For the fifth consecutive spring, the Diamondbacks will travel south to Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico, for a game in Hector Espino Stadium. This year, the National League West rival San Diego Padres will provide the opposition on Sunday, March 17.
The home schedule at Tucson Electric Park features visits by all Cactus League teams, with the American League West champion Seattle Mariners coming into town on Tuesday, March 12.
Ticket prices for games at Tucson Electric Park remain unchanged from last year and range from $3 to $16 per game. Tucson residents will have the opportunity to purchase tickets on Jan. 5 with the 5th Annual ''Tucson First'' event and the sale of tickets will open to the general public on Jan. 6 at the Tucson Electric Park box office at 2500 East Ajo Way or by calling 520-434-1111.
