Braves play first game at CoolToday Park


When $125 million is spent building a baseball facility, you’d assume the team would want to make use of it early and often.

That wasn’t the case with CoolToday Park, the Braves’ new spring-training home in North Port, Florida. The team chose to play only a single game there this year out of an abundance of caution, giving construction crews a little breathing room to complete the project.

So the team played its final Florida exhibition of this year there on March 24th. We were there — not just to take some photos, but to do all of the interviews and research necessary to provide you with a full, in-depth review, including 26 photos you won’t see anywhere else. Check out what we thought about the impressive — and beautiful — new facility.

Check out my behind-the-scenes look at the massive improvements to the Milwaukee Brewers’ spring training complex in the Maryvale neighborhood of Phoenix.

The new structures and renovations were completed in time for this year’s spring training. The changes cost over $60 million, and they drastically improved the experience of both the players and fans.

So take a look at our photo essay on the upgraded facilities. It contains two dozen photos!
