Roger Dean Stadium name to remain


Local automobile dealer Roger Dean Chevrolet has renewed its contract to remain the naming rights partner of the Jupiter, Florida baseball facility for the final eight years of the current lease, through until the end of 2017 Florida State League season.

Roger Dean Stadium houses the Florida Marlins and St. Louis Cardinals for Spring Training as well as the Jupiter Hammerheads and Palm Beach Cardinals, the organizations’ Class A-Advanced affiliates in the Florida State League.

The Florida Marlins have been at Roger Dean Stadium since 2002 when they replaced the Montreal Expos. The Cardinals have been there ever since the stadium’s opening in 1998, when they relocated from their long-time spring home in St. Petersburg.
