PHOENIX -- Back in 1998 when the Brewers moved their Spring Training facility from Chandler, Ariz., to Phoenix, Maryvale Baseball Park fit right in with other facilities in the Cactus League. But after other state-of-the-art complexes were built around Maricopa County, Milwaukee was in need of updates to Maryvale.
Last November, Milwaukee decided to invest in the facility along with the city of Phoenix. Construction began in March at the conclusion of the club's Spring Training.
Monday marked a big moment in the progress of Maryvale's renovations, as the Brewers hosted a "topping out" ceremony with the final steel beam being put in place for their new clubhouse at the facility.
