The Arizona Diamondbacks, affectionately known as the D-backs, will hold their 9th annual SUBWAY D-backs FanFest on Saturday, February 9, 2013 in Phoenix’s famed Chase Field.

The free event will give fans the chance to rub elbows with current players, coaches, and alumni in autograph and photo sessions on the field. The long list of those scheduled to appear includes:

  • Heath Bell
  • Willie Bloomquist
  • Trevor Cahill
  • Tyler Skaggs
  • Patrick Corbin
  • Will Nieves
  • Wade Miley
  • J.J. Putz
  • Coaches Don Baylor, Charles Nagy, Steve Sax, Glenn Sherlock
  • And many more

Those who want an autograph from their favorite player or coach will have to make sure to grab up one of the limited number of $5 autograph vouchers. 100% of the proceeds will go to the Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation. Click here for more information on the schedule for autograph sessions and how you can get your hands on vouchers.

The D-backs definitely know how to spoil their fans: For the 8th annual FanFest, SUBWAY awarded the first 3,000 fans to a free SUBWAY cash card loaded with amounts ranging from $1 to $100. Not too shabby, right?

Attendees can expect the same generosity this year.

Beyond the autograph session, fans will also be given the opportunity to tour the Arizona Diamondbacks home clubhouse, browse the selection at the Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation Yard Sale, have some family-friendly fun at the Family Fun Zone, and much more.

Another D-backs FanFest guarantee is large crowds. A record-breaking 25,000 Arizona Diamondbacks fans attended this year’s FanFest, more than doubling last year’s turnout. If this trend continues, D-backs FanFest 2013 will be the biggest FanFest ever and parking will probably be an even bigger pain.

Let AZ LIMO make facing these huge crowds a little less stressful. With a selection of Sedans that can seat up to 4 passengers, limos that can seat up to 20, and mini coaches that can seat up to 25, AZ LIMO can accommodate a family of any size. Enjoy our services for D-backs FanFest and get in and out as quickly and as painlessly as you’d like.

#1 Spring Training 2016: Cactus League Limo Service

In 1947, following the spring training trend that had been in practice in other parts of the country since the late 1800s, major league baseball teams the Cleveland Indians and the New York Giants, now the San Francisco Giants, set up training bases in Arizona, signaling the start of Arizona’s Cactus League.

If there’s anything that can upstage the Grand Canyon, it’s the Cactus League. Each spring since 1947, professional baseball teams in the Cactus League have trekked to the Grand Canyon State for a month of spring training in preparation for the regular season. Cactus League spring training is a time when team managers use exhibition games to evaluate the performance of professional players, size up new talent, and determine which players they believe are most likely to earn the much-coveted title of World Series Champs. Players are not only competing against other teams for the win but also vying against their own teammates for a spot on the team during regular season.

For 65 years, the Cactus League has given baseball fanatics access to exciting exhibition games and a one-of-a-kind preview of what their favorite teams have in store for the regular season. Cactus League 2015 seems set up to provide give baseball fans another awesome year of spring training. The roster of participating teams includes:

  • Arizona Diamondbacks
  • Chicago Cubs
  • Chicago White Sox
  • Cincinnati Reds
  • Cleveland Indians
  • Colorado Rockies
  • Kansas City Royals
  • Los Angeles Angels
  • Los Angeles Dodgers
  • Milwaukee Brewers
  • San Diego Padres
  • Texas Rangers
  • Seattle Mariners
  • San Francisco Giants

The first bit of Spring Training 2015 exhibition games begin in late February and continue into late March, but tickets go on sale in early January. Visit stubhub.com and springtrainingconnection.com to purchase tickets and view the Cactus League 2015 schedule.
