So, how did Florida become the go-to spot for MLB teams? It all started back in the early 1900s, when teams like the Cincinnati Reds and the Philadelphia Athletics began training in the state. And it's easy to see why - the warm weather and scenic landscapes made it the perfect spot to get some practice in before the regular season.
Today, there are 15 different Spring Training sites scattered throughout Florida, each with its own unique character and charm. From the Atlanta Braves' home at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex to the New York Yankees' digs at George M. Steinbrenner Field, there's no shortage of exciting places to catch a game.
