Notes: The ball park has been dwarfed by the continuous expansion of the Florida Citrus Bowl, which now abuts the right field wall. The stadium served as the spring training facility for several teams as well as the home of a couple of Florida State League and Southern League teams until it was abandoned in 2000 for Champion Stadium, in nearby Kissimmee. It is named for Baseball Hall of Famer Joe Tinker, who retired to Orlando and is buried nearby. 909 of the grandstand seats are from long-gone Griffith Stadium in Washington, D.C.
