Tucson spring training
It's hard to believe spring training is leaving the old pueblo...especially for an oldtimer like me who recalls walking into Hi Corbett Field on a breezy March afternoon with my eyes glued to the diamond as I watched the 1958 Cleveland Indians warmup.
On the field, in front of me were Russ Nixon, Mickey Vernon, Minnie Minoso, Larry Doby and Rocky Colavito as well as pitchers Herb Score, Mudcat Grant and Hoyt Wilhelm.
Spring training will be missed!
