Macayo's Mexican Kitchen
No trip to Arizona for Spring Training is complete without enjoying the best tasting Mexican food around. Macayo's Mexican Kitchen is a Valley of the Sun tradition, serving delicious chimichangas, tacos and enchiladas in town since 1946. Before or after the Mariners game, fans can visit any either of our Northwest Valley locations in 59 th Ave & Bell Rd. in Glendale or in Surprise at Bell Rd & Reems Rd www.macayo.com

Guests are provided with numerous options to experience a total evening of dining, music and entertainment, including spacious booths, two outdoor patios, a semi private VIP area, and a mezzanine "viewing area" overlooking the dancing activities. www.mcduffys.com
No Need To Buy Tickets Ahead For Most Padres Games
Fans are real down on the Padres in ’09. I know. I live in San Diego. The team has slashed its payroll and is in the process of being sold. Tickets here are expensive. Save your money on the convenience fees and buy day of game at the box office or from a scalper at below face value out front. The only exception: when the Cubs visit.
