FRISCO, Texas — Want to see the Shreveport Captains play again?

You can. In Frisco, Texas.

Today the Frisco RoughRiders are one of the most successful clubs in minor league baseball. They are the Double-A team of the Texas Rangers and play in the Texas League.

I know: some of that sounds painfully familiar.

If you’ve never been to Frisco and need a quick getaway, you can be downtown from Shreveport in three hours. Interstate-20, Interstate 635, Dallas Tollway, turn on Gaylord Perry and you are in the Dr Pepper Ballpark parking lot.

The park opened in 2003 and they’ve been improving it since. Pool in right field for parties — I will passadena on the community pool, but still, it’s there if you need it, plus there’s a waterfall out there — patios in left and left center too. You can sit on the grassy hill on either side of the centerfield wall. There are about 25 suites, built to look like little houses all around the infield and down the lines.

It’s in a cozy spot in town. A nice apartment building is outside of right field, and I think it’s a giant Embassy Suites in center; you could watch a game from your room.

It’s 409 to center, 364 in the alleys, 335 down the lines.

Globe Life Park, which I guess will always be The Ballpark in Arlington to me, is 40 minutes away. You could make some weekend a RoughRiders/Texas Rangers doubleheader.

Opening week in Frisco this season is April 5-10. They also have a Teddy Membership! It’s named after Teddy Roosevelt, the original RoughRider. It’s a great seat but you have to sit on the back of horse. (Joking: the seating for Teddy members is in the infield and comes with access to the Carnival Getaway Grill.)

Wanna go? Me too.
