4/28/2011-The Fish nets are up in the desert and the White Sands Pupfish report to Alamogordo for Spring Training May 4, 2011. Alamogordo's Griggs Park in the center location of the Pecos League, despite being isloated in the middle of the New Mexico Desert, the Pupfish have the best travel schedule in the league with fewest nights away from home. The Pupfish ballpark will be the most unique ballpark in the Pecos League with Fish Nets on both foul lines 100 feet off of the foul line and 40 feet high. These nets will be in play. The Pupfish are lead by manager Keith Essary who managed the Coastal Kingfish in 2009. Essary will be looking to silence critics that he can't win. Keith is bringing in an exciting team that he thinks will do well in altitude. The fans in Alamogordo can't wait for Spring Training to get start, opposing pitchers will wish they never saw Griggs Park with 30-50 mph constant winds blowing out to left field and 4600 feet altitude could cause for some high scoring games.
