Pittsburgh Pirates

Stadium : McKechnie Field

McKechnie Field is one of the first ballparks in the Florida Grapefruit league. The city has done little to really try to keep the Pirates. The stadium has not been renovated in 15 years and parking is a joke; you have to search for available parking within the nearby neighborhoods. The team does a great job of making the best of the situation and fans really get their monies worth from the experience. This team could likely be migrating to Arizona when the contract for these facilities expire, based upon the current facilities
