Hello and happy Friday!
MLB teams don’t usually practice on the same fields they play on. There are many reasons for this, with the biggest one being that MLB teams don’t really practice once Spring Training is over. There’s no time for it.
But MLB parks also aren’t great for practicing on, because there’s only one field. So that leaves the San Francisco Giants — and the 29 other MLB teams — with a bit of a conundrum.
Players are supposed to report for the second iteration of Spring Training on July 1, but they’re supposed to report to their home ballparks.
