The Dodgers play 16 of their 30 Cactus League games at Camelback Ranch. All times are 1:05pm local time unless otherwise noted (clocks spring forward on Sunday, March 11, but not in Arizona, so the day games on those first eight days are 12:05 p.m. PDT starts), and are of course subject to change. Tickets and more information can be found here.
In 2011, the Dodgers had 30 Cactus League games scheduled in 30 days, including one split-squad day and one day off. In 2012, the Dodgers have 30 games in 28 days, including three split-squad days and one off day.
The Dodgers open their regular season at Petco Park on Thursday, April 5 against the San Diego Padres.
