D-backs announce 34-game spring training schedule


PHOENIX -- The Arizona Diamondbacks announced their 34-game Spring Training schedule, which features 20 home games and three road games at the award-winning Salt River Fields at Talking Stick and two exhibition games at Chase Field. This season will mark the fifth year at the shared Spring Training facility with the Colorado Rockies on Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community land near Scottsdale.
The D-backs open their 18th Spring Training on March 3 at Salt River Fields at Talking Stick with an exhibition game against Arizona State University as part of a Collegiate Series that will take place for the next six seasons. The D-backs will rotate opponents among Arizona's three Division I NCAA baseball programs -- ASU, Arizona and Grand Canyon, playing each school twice during the six-year period.
The D-backs have 14 games against their National League West rivals, with five games against the San Francisco Giants and Rockies and a pair of games versus the San Diego Padres and Los Angeles Dodgers. The D-backs will play four evening games at Salt River Fields, including matchups on March 14 vs. Giants, March 19 vs. Chicago Cubs, March 24 vs. Milwaukee Brewers, and an away game against the Rockies on March 18. The D-backs will wrap up Spring Training with a two-game set against the Cubs on April 3 and 4 at Chase Field.
Tickets for all games at Salt River Fields, including the D-backs vs. ASU game, are priced from $9 to $28.
