Ed Smith Stadium in Sarasota had been home to the Chicago White Sox and Cincinnati Reds since it was built in 1989. Since 2010, the Orioles have called it home; the facility even features 7,100 seats that were recycled from the team’s regular home at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Baseball fans are typically drawn to the greater Tampa Bay area in the spring because the region features a slew of other teams a close drive away including the Toronto Blue Jays (Dunedin), Pittsburgh Pirates (Bradenton), Philadelphia Phillies (Clearwater) and New York Yankees (Tampa).
