It's not often you see a player in his home spring training site, with another team's site visible in the background. However in the late 1960s both the Red Sox and Indians trained in Winter Haven, with the Red Sox at Chain of Lakes Park, and the Indians at a facility that included the 55-foot-high Orange Dome, which opened in 1964 and hosted the annual Citrus Festival as well as various sporting events and concerts. It was torn down in 2012 to make way for a mall.
