MILWAUKEE -- The Phoenix City Council on Wednesday approved a major renovation of Maryvale Baseball Park that will keep the Brewers in their Spring Training home for another 25 years.
The plan, which passed by a 6-2 vote, calls for the Brewers to foot most of the bill for an overhaul of the complex, which has housed their Spring Training operation, a Rookie League team and the organization's year-round rehabilitation facility since 1998. The Brewers will invest at least $41 million in construction of a new 65,000-square-foot building with clubhouse, office and retail space, plus an expanded stadium concourse and a new practice field that replicates the dimensions of Miller Park.
