Baseball in Anchorage

Two semiprofessional baseball teams, made up of college players, play at Mulcahy Stadium next to the Sullivan Arena. The games played here are intense—many players have gone on to star in the major leagues. The Anchorage Bucs (907/561-2827. www.anchoragebucs.com) have a dozen or so former players who went on to the majors, including standouts Wally Joyner, Jeff Kent, and Bobby Jones. The most famous player on the Glacier Pilots (907/274-3627. www.glacierpilots.com) was Mark McGwire, but many other pre-major leaguers have played for them over the years, including Dave Winfield, Randy Johnson, and Reggie Jackson.
