Here's what you need to know for the 2019 Cactus League

Coming to Arizona for spring training? Live in Arizona but want to catch a game? Either way, we have you covered.

It's March in Arizona, which means spring training is underway.

Once pitchers and catchers report, things (mostly traffic) tend to get a little chaotic. With 15 teams at 10 ballparks across the Phoenix area, there's a lot to track.

We've put together the top tips for anyone planning to head to the Cactus League stadiums this spring.

American Family Fields - Brewers

The $60 million overhaul features new concessions, a new scoreboard and upgraded seats.

The new Brewers team store is also three times as big as the old one, so you can explore retail options in greater depth.

Camelback Ranch - Dodgers and White Sox

Dodgers fans don't even have to drive all the way to Phoenix to see the boys in blue.

Glendale's Camelback Ranch features exact-dimension practice field replicas of Dodger Stadium and the White Sox' Guaranteed Rate Field.

Goodyear Ballpark - Indians and Reds

Ohioans visiting Arizona for spring training can get their fix at Goodyear Ballpark, the Reds' and Indians' Arizona home.

The stadium features a 60-foot, 6-inch baseball-themed sculpture called "The Ziz" in the Home Plate Plaza.

Hohokam Stadium - Athletics

Hohokam is one of the Valley's more storied spring training parks.

The Oakland Athletics' spring training home features Bay Area food and drink options, as well as Phoenix favorites like Freak Brothers Pizza and Gadzooks enchiladas.

Peoria Sports Complex - Mariners and Padres

The home of the Seattle Mariners and San Diego Padres features plenty of fun for kids and adults alike.

For the young ones, there's an interactive playground on the third-base concourse. For adults, there is a craft beer courtyard to try Arizona's breweries.

Salt River Fields - Diamondbacks and Rockies

The Valley's home team has one of spring training's most expansive food menus.

The home of the Diamondbacks and Rockies also features an outfield lawn that runs foul pole to foul pole, meaning there's plenty of space for you and your blanket.

Scottsdale Stadium - Giants

The Giants' Arizona home is right in Old Town Scottsdale, offering access to plenty of restaurants and bars just outside the stadium gates.

Parking can be a bit of a chore there, but the city offers shuttle service from several locations to the games.

Sloan Park - Cubs

The Cubs moved to Sloan Park in 2014, upgrading their spring training home in Mesa.

"Wrigleyville West" features a replica of Wrigley Field's marquee and, of course, the Chicago dog at concessions.

Surprise Stadium - Rangers and Royals

Right-field and upper-level seats offer beautiful views of the Estrella and White Tank Mountains at the Rangers' and Royals' Arizona home.

Picnic tables throughout the 360-degree concourse offer an easier eating location than the standard stadium seat.

Tempe Diablo Stadium - Angels

Tempe Diablo offers one of the best views in the Cactus League, with The Buttes resort right next to the ballpark.

There's also a shaded area to sit in along the third-base line for those trying to avoid a sunburn.
