In the desert of Southern California baseball is played three months a year. In June and July the Palm Springs Power play in the Southern California Collegiate Baseball League. In the California Winter League, played in mid-January to early February, players from all over the country come to showcase their talent in front of Major League Baseball scouts for the MLB Draft, held in June.
In other sports, tennis and golf are the primary sports in the desert, though basketball, football, soccer, and ice hockey are also played.
In all, sports is always the mind’s refuge to temporarily escape life’s stresses. Where would the world be without sports?
