Get ready to experience baseball like never before as the Savannah Bananas, the wildest team in baseball, bring their brand of "Banana Ball" to Nationals Park!
Decked out in their signature bright yellow uniforms, the Savannah Bananas bring a Harlem Globetrotters-style flair to America's favorite pastime. But what exactly is "Banana Ball"? It's a crazy, fast-paced version of baseball with its own set of quirky rules and non-stop entertainment.
Imagine a game where there's a strict 2-hour time limit, on-field celebrations are encouraged, and traditional baseball rules like walks and bunting are thrown out the window. And here's the kicker – if a fan catches a ball in the stands, it counts as an out!
But amidst all the antics and fun, there's still a real baseball game happening. Founded in 2016 as part of the Coastal Plains League, a summer circuit for college players, the Savannah Bananas quickly gained a reputation for their unique approach to the game. Playing their home games in Savannah's historic Grayson Stadium, the Bananas soon expanded beyond the league, becoming a professional barnstorming team that travels across the country, playing in MLB and amateur stadiums alike.
And now, on July 13, 2024, the Savannah Bananas are bringing their one-of-a-kind show to Nationals Park. It's an event you won't want to miss!
But here's the catch – tickets are in high demand. To get your chance to witness the Savannah Bananas live in action, you'll need to enter an online ticket lottery. But don't wait too long – the deadline to register is December 1, 2023.
So mark your calendars, baseball fans, because Banana Ball is coming to Nationals Park, and it's guaranteed to be a home run of a time!
