Succession boxes

edit

I don't understand the use of the word "Incumbent" in the left-hand side of the Spring Training succession boxes at the bottom of the article. "Incumbent" means that something or someone currently occupies a position. If it's meant to indicate that J.P. Small Memorial Stadium was the first Spring Training venue for a team, then I think the word "Incumbent" should be replaced by "None". Also, I'd recommend combining pairs of boxes, e.g.

Preceded by
Incumbent
(should be "None"?)
New York Yankees Spring Training Location
Barrs Field
Jacksonville

1919 – 1920
Succeeded by
Preceded by
Unknown Stadium
Columbus, Georgia
1917
Pittsburgh Pirates Spring Training Location
Barrs Field
Jacksonville

1918
Succeeded by
Preceded by
