High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! McKechnie Field is a baseball field located in Bradenton, Florida. It is the spring training home of the Pittsburgh Pirates and is named for Bradenton resident and baseball great, Bill McKechnie. Not only did Pirates as Hall of Famers Roberto Clemente, Willie Stargell and Bill Mazeroski play at McKechnie, but also MLB greats Babe Ruth, Ted Williams and Mike Schmidt. McKechnie's nostalgic charms in its city neighborhood appeal to many baseball traditionalists and ballpark enthusiasts, and some consider the cozy facility "Florida's spring training Fenway." It's built in a Florida Spanish Mission style, with white stucco on the main grandstand and cover bleachers over the reserved seating section. The Pirates and the City of Bradenton celebrated their 40th anniversary together during the 2008 spring training season, which included an agreement between the city and the Pirates to continue their partnership for another 30 years.
