The Goodyear, Ariz., city council unanimously approved a binding agreement with the Reds Monday night. The team and the suburban Phoenix city have been in negotiations since January.
The Reds will join the Cleveland Indians at a $108 million facility, which will include a 10,000-seat ballpark and will be the centerpiece of a $1 billion development with offices, shops and restaurants.
The Indians, who previously trained in Winter Haven, Fla., will move there in February. The Reds plan to hold one more spring training in Sarasota, Fla., before joining them.
