Fitch Park is a baseball park complex and training facility located in Mesa, Arizona.[2] It is the spring training workout facility for Major League Baseball's Oakland Athletics. It is also the year-round home for Oakland's minor league training and player development operations, the home ballpark of the Arizona League Athletics, and the spring training home for Oakland's minor league affiliates.[3][4]
The Chicago Cubs used the baseball fields and training facility in the same capacities from 1997 to 2013.[4]
Prior to the Athletics' use, the training facility, renamed the Lew Wolff Training Complex, was renovated and expanded to 55,433 square feet (5,149.9 m2).[3] The building's exterior and interior were remodeled to reflect Oakland's green and gold color scheme.[3] The playing fields, pitcher's mounds, and batting cages were also improved to meet the team's needs.[3]
