With Spring Training in Arizona wrapping up in another week, Opening Day for Major League Baseball is right around the corner. This year, the MLB regular season commences on March 27 and runs through September, with the amped-up postseason to follow. Most clubs will play their first game on Opening Day, and this will include our Los Angeles Angels, although they will be away for a few games before returning to Anaheim. The Angels open up at Angel Stadium on April 4th, and after the home opener, there should be plenty of opportunities to catch the Angels in action locally.
Getting out to the ball game may be a tradition for many American families, but even if you didn't grow up playing or watching baseball, we recommend going to a game at least once, especially in this gorgeous California spring weather. From the Alamo Inn and Suites, Angel Stadium is just a 10 minute drive away, and if you're already in the area for Disneyland® or an event at the Anaheim Convention Center, this would be an easy opportunity to immerse yourself in the local sports scene. Baseball games are usually a fun way to spend time with co-workers and families and there should be a variety of stadium concessions to satisfy everyone's cravings. When the sun begins to set, and 11 time All-star Mike Trout, one of the game's greatest this decade, smacks the horsehide out of the park under those bright lights, just get ready to ROAR with the hometown crowd (If you have little ones, it's always a good idea to bring their earmuffs, because it will be loud) – this will be a piece of Anaheim sporting history you will not want to miss!
