Guest JimH Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Looks like the Sox will be in Tucson for a couple of more years. There was an article in one of the LA papers about two weeks ago which said the Angels have told the folks at Tempe Diablo Stadium they'll be staying there through 2007. It had been speculated the Angels would try to move to another facility sooner, with the White Sox moving into Tempe, assuming they could get another team to take over the lease in Tucson. The Angels are going to build a new spring training facility in Goodyear, which is a southwestern suburb of Phoenix, but it appears it won't be ready for a couple of years.

bjm676 Posted November 4, 2004 Author Share Posted November 4, 2004 I'm a little upset they won't be playing on St. Patrick's Day. Always loved it when they wore those green unis. But this is coming from an Irishman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is coming from an Irishman. I know those uniforms kick ass I have a green sox cap which I proudly sport at most of the games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
