Spring Training History

When the "new" Washington Senators entered the American League in 1961, they established a spring-training camp in Pompano Beach, Florida, and stayed there until 1986, when operations were shifted to Port Charlotte. The Rangers moved spring training from Florida to Surprise in 2003.
