As we head towards Fox Sports Arizona’s first Baseball Day Arizona, which will be taking place on Saturday, thought it might be interesting to look back at the history of the game in our state. Though I use the word “some” in the title, rather than “a” or “the”, because it proved remarkably difficult to track down information about pre-Diamondbacks baseball in Arizona. From what I could find, there’s no single website or even story that talked about the subject in its entirety. So what follows is more of an eclectic buffet, pulling together elements out of various places into a platter of appetizers, from various eras and locations across the state.
