The first sign of spring is here! While I haven’t seen a robin in my backyard yet, I do come bearing good news, because the pitchers and catchers for the Atlanta Braves are scheduled to report to Orlando tomorrow to get ready for the 2014 baseball season.

That means that Spring Training is scheduled to start up soon at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex found at Walt Disney World. Games are scheduled to take place starting at the end of February and lasting through most of March.

This is the 17th year the reigning National League East Division Champions will play at Champion Stadium. During Spring Training, the Braves will play against popular clubs such as the New York Yankees, the Philadelphia Phillies, the Boston Red Sox, the New York Mets, and (my team) the St. Louis Cardinals. It all kicks off when the Braves play the Detroit Tigers on February 26. The complete season is as follows:

Wednesday, February 26	Detroit Tigers	1:05pm
Friday, February 28	Houston Astros	6:05pm
Sunday, March 2	Detroit Tigers	1:05pm
Monday, March 3	New York Mets	1:05pm
Tuesday, March 4	Washington Nationals	1:05pm
Thursday, March 6	Washington Nationals	6:05pm
Saturday, March 8	Miami Marlins	1:05pm
Tuesday, March 11	Philadelphia Phillies	1:05pm
Wednesday, March 12	Washington Nationals	1:05pm
Friday, March 14	Tampa Bay Rays	1:05pm
Saturday, March 15	St. Louis Cardinals	1:05pm
Wednesday, March 19	New York Yankees	1:05pm
Friday, March 21	Detroit Tigers	1:05pm
Saturday, March 22	Boston Red Sox	1:05pm
Sunday, March 23	New York Mets	1:05pm
Monday, March 24	Houston Astros	6:05pm
Wednesday, March 26	Miami Marlins	1:05pm

Spring Training games bring a ton of fun with them. Guests will be treated to game day entertainment and additional fan experiences, from character appearances to an exclusive on-field spectator experience and kids running the bases after the game.

Those who would like to take in a game may now purchase individual game tickets through ticketmaster.com or at the sports complex box office.

So, let’s root, root, root for The Bravos, at the old ball game!
