We attended a Mariners Spring Training game in Peoria, Arizona.

Spring training for the Mariners is held at Peoria Sports Complex. Here’s a satellite view, showing where our seats were located, right behind home plate:

Despite our team losing, we enjoyed the game. We may look into attending a Mariners game when we’re in the Seattle region later this year; it’s been ages since we’ve attended a game.
