Now home to the Giants since 1984, this spacious ballpark has plenty to offer, including picturesque views of the Camelback and McDowell Mountains and a large selection of specialty beers. The “new” Scottsdale Stadium opened in 1992 after a year of construction, with a facilities update in 2019, which included an all new clubhouse facilities, event spaces and new entry gate, Home Plate Plaza. Scottsdale Stadium is located in the heart of Scottsdale’s vibrant downtown district, with ample bars, restaurants, shops and stores within walking distance. GIANTS’ 2020 SEASON: The Giants completed the 2020 shortened season with a record of 29-31, good for third place in the NL West. LAST WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONSHIP: 2014 PLAYERS TO WATCH: Mike Yastrzemski, Alex Dickerson, Johnny Cueto, Donovan Solano, Buster Posey, Joey Bart, Kevin Gausman MANAGER: Gabe Kapler TEAM MASCOT: Lou Seal AFTER THE GAME: Old Town Scottsdale is among the most vibrant and unique urban downtown centers in the American Southwest. Its pedestrian-friendly streets are home to world class art galleries, museums, restaurants and retail shops ... and when the sun goes down you don’t have to because of the exciting nightlife. oldtownscottsdaleaz.com
