What would a New York “spring” training look like?

The Yankees have held spring training in a number of locations. There are a few that have served as the team’s opening camp for extended periods of time — St. Petersburg, Fort Lauderdale and their current residence in Tampa are the main three. They’ve also trained in a number of places around the country back in the early 1900s, like Houston, Atlanta or Jacksonville.

They’ve never had to start their season in the confides of their everyday stadium, however. The farthest the Yankees have gone north to begin spring training was Atlantic City in the final years of World War II.
