Dan, in a former life, I worked for a power company. In that job, I got to
work closely with lighting engineers. I cannot vouch for the practices of
Arizona, but I can tell you that back in the Midwest, athletic fields like
this were always lit with metal halide fixtures as they give better color
rendition on the field, helping players distinguish uniform colors. Without
actually going to this site, I would say these are probably metal halide
lights.

OK, let's try this again. First time I sent this I exceeded the 50-line
quote limit. Damn, that's a nuisance.
Here's the links to two of the photos she sent me showing those offending
lights:
