Simply put, baseball spring training is as much a part of the attraction to Scottsdale as great restaurants, world class resorts and shopping. The tradition began in 1956 when the Baltimore Orioles decided to come to sunny Arizona for their spring training. Currently, the Charros and City of Scottsdale play host to the San Francisco Giants during February and March every year, and the Scottsdale Stadium is filled to capacity for most Cactus League games.

San Fransico Giants fans and baseball fans alike can buy one of two tickets...one being a general admission or bleacher ticket, which is sold through Giants. Two, buy Charro's Lodge tickets in a VIP like setting through the Scottsdale Charros. To buy tickets from the Scottsdale Charros call 480-990-2977 or info@charros.com to purchase Charro Lodge passes

Enjoy the 2010 spring training season with the San Francisco Giants in sunny Scottsdale!

Simply put, baseball spring training is as much a part of the attraction to Scottsdale as great restaurants, world class resorts and shopping. The tradition began in 1956 when the Baltimore Orioles decided to come to sunny Arizona for their spring training. Currently, the Charros and City of Scottsdale play host to the San Francisco Giants during February and March every year, and the Scottsdale Stadium is filled to capacity for most Cactus League games.

San Fransico Giants fans and baseball fans alike can buy one of two tickets...one being a general admission or bleacher ticket, which is sold through Giants. Two, buy Charro's Lodge tickets in a VIP like setting through the Scottsdale Charros. To buy tickets from the Scottsdale Charros call 480-990-2977 or info@charros.com to purchase Charro Lodge passes

Enjoy the 2010 spring training season with the San Francisco Giants in sunny Scottsdale!
