TROPICANA FIELD HISTORY

TROPICANA FIELD  (baseball capacity 38,437)

St. Petersburg, Florida

Park opened March 1998.  The domed facility opened in 1990 but did not have a tenant until the NHL moved a team there in 1993.  Rumors that a major league team would move to the dome never materialized.  In 1995 an expansion franchise was awarded to the area.  Baseball finally arrived at the facility in 1998 as Tampa Bay opened against the Tigers.  Tampa Bay’s Wade Boggs homered to collect his 3000th career hit on 8-7-1999.
