Baseball Is Back!

As the calendar gets ready to turn to March, baseball is back in South Florida. With the addition of two new teams in 2017, it's safe to say that baseball in South Florida is not just back, but better than ever!

On Tuesday, Feb 28th, Major League Baseball makes its return to West Palm Beach for the first time since the Atlanta Braves and Montreal Expos played their final game in the West Palm Beach Municipal Stadium in March of 1997. The Houston Astros and the Washington Nationals will open the brand new Ballpark of the Palm Beaches, the sprawling Spring Training facility and 160-acre city park located between Millitary Trail and Haverhill Road in West Palm Beach.

Those two teams bring even more action to Palm Beach County, joining the Miami Marlins and St. Louis Cardinals who call Abacoa and Rodger Dean Stadium home during the Spring Training season.

If you are coming into town for some great baseball, the Palm Beach Marriott Singer Island Resort and Spa has you covered for your lodging needs. Their special spring training travel package runs through March 31st and includes a condo-style suite with kitchen and washer dryer, breakfast every morning and baseball themed swag. Rates start at $477 per night.
