Estadio Quisqueya winter baseball season preparations

Overview

Preparations are underway at Estadio Quisqueya Juan Marichal for the upcoming Dominican professional winter baseball season.

To ensure safety during large-scale events, security personnel underwent specialized emergency training led by the National District Fire Department. This training focused on crowd management, evacuation protocols, and fire extinguisher use, a measure prompted by recent seismic activity and previous incidents at the venue.

Additionally, the stadium has undergone infrastructure improvements and remodeling, including a $500,000 renovation earlier in the year. Enhancements include field maintenance, grass aeration, and the conversion of an old bullpen into a VIP area with a 200-seat plaza and various amenities. The season is scheduled to begin with a matchup between Leones del Escogido and Tigres del Licey.
