It’s spring training time, and Florida is blessed with 15 Major League Baseball teams wintering in the Sunshine State. Imagine living in a luxury home in Lakeland where the Detroit Tigers play February and March. Enjoying peanuts and Cracker Jack at a Red Sox or Twins ballgame in Fort Myers. How about an afternoon with the Baltimore Orioles or Atlanta Braves from your awe-inspiring Venice or Sarasota homes? There’s the New York Yankees, a long fly ball from your impressive Tampa luxury residence. And for those who feast on hot dogs, beer and minor league baseball, there’s nothing better than the affiliate of the Chicago White Sox, the Charlotte Knights. Crazy about baseball? Check out these five wonderful homes.
