LECOM Park

LECOM Park is the Spring Training ballpark of the Pittsburgh Pirates and the summer home of the Bradenton Marauders.

LECOM Park was originally built in 1923, and is the third-oldest ballpark actively used by Major League Baseball. It has undergone a number of significant renovations over the last three decades to provide fans modern amenities while maintaining the feeling of a classic ballpark. The iconic Spanish mission style façade was constructed during a significant facelift of the stadium in the early 1990s. Lights came about in 2008.

LECOM Park received the top honor of the 2018 Best of the Ballparks fan vote for High-A facilities, conducted by Ballpark Digest. The same publication has previously recognized The Friendly City’s ballfield as “Best of the Ballparks” in the Grapefruit League. LECOM Park has held the top spot among Florida Spring Training destinations since 2016.
