New York Yankees

 

 

Named after one of the most iconic owners in sports history, George M. Steinbrenner Field is one of Tampa’s leading special events facilities and spring home to the 27-time World Champion, New York Yankees.  Under the leadership of the Steinbrenner Family for over four decades, the New York Yankees have long been viewed as one of the most successful franchises in sports history and one of the most iconic brands in the world. Yankees Spring Training draws fans from around the country and is an impactful economic contributor to the greater Tampa Bay area.  Additionally, the Yankees organization is proud of its support of local non-profit organizations through the New York Yankees Tampa Foundation. Present in Tampa since 1989, the Yankees recently completed a $40 million renovation project at George M. Steinbrenner Field and the Himes Player Development Complex, while extending their commitment to Hillsborough County through 2047.
