PIMA COUNTY, (Oct. 10, 2025) – The Arizona Fall League (AFL) has canceled its tripleheader at Kino Veterans Memorial Stadium on Saturday, Oct. 11, 2025, because of weather concerns related to Hurricane Priscilla.
The tripleheader, which would have featured all six Phoenix-area teams from the Arizona Fall League, was set to mark the league’s first appearance in Tucson since 2002. The AFL showcases top prospects from every Major League team.
“In speaking with the Arizona Fall League officials, we hope to continue a positive relationship in the future,” said Sarah Horvath, director of the Kino Sports Complex and Stadium District.
For fans who purchased tickets to Saturday’s event, the AFL will be providing the option to either exchange for tickets to the Arizona Fall League Home Run Derby (Nov. 8) and the Fall Stars Game (Nov. 9) in Mesa, or receive a full refund through the original method of purchase. Fans should expect an email within the coming days. For further questions, please email arizonafallleague@mlb.com.
While the AFL’s return to Tucson has been delayed, baseball fans won’t have to wait long for action at Kino Stadium.
Starting Thursday, Oct. 16, Kino will host the 34-game home season of the new Tucson Baseball Team, which is competing in the Mexican Pacific Winter League. The Tucson Baseball Team, which will hold a “name-the-team” contest during the season, is the first club from the Liga ARCO Mexicana del Pacífico to be based in the United States.
