The Brewers remain one of only a handful of Cactus League teams to possess their own stadium. The 7,000-capacity Maryvale Baseball Park is a spectators’ park that offers beautiful sight lines, a huge concourse and a massive lawn. Tickets are generally easy to come by, even on weekends.
Address: 3600 N. 51st Avenue, Phoenix. See it on a map.

Parking: Onsite. There are 2,000 parking spaces; during crowded games, several strip malls across the street from the complex offer pay parking.
Tickets: $8-$27 (may vary based on the game) at brewers.com, the stadium box office or 800-933-7890.
Best place to sit: Brewers infield seats are among the cheapest in the league at $27. The lawn is massive, so even at $8 tickets are almost always available.
Concessions: You will find the standards, plus some Milwaukee-area favorites like brats. Built-in food stands, and roaming concourse and seat vendors are also available.
