n8rngtd.topAs MLB spring training gets underway, half of the league is in the state of Arizona to prepare for the 2025 season. Cactus League play begins this week, as the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs face off on Thursday, Feb. 20.
The Cactus League, which is entirely situated in the Phoenix metropolitan area, began in 1947—decades after its counterpart, Florida's Grapefruit League—and now hosts 15 of the league's teams playing across 10 ballparks.
Let's take a look at the towns and ballparks that the 15 teams that play in the Cactus League call home in 2025.
Where every MLB team in Arizona Cactus League hosts spring training
Of the 15 franchises that host spring training in Arizona, 10 share ballparks. Two towns have multiple spring training parks: Mesa, home of the Athletics and Chicago Cubs at separate facilities; and Scottsdale, where the Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies share a facility and the San Francisco Giants play just over five miles across town.
