Banana Ball coming to Auburn University
Banana Ball will soon be making its way to Auburn University.
The Savannah Bananas announced Monday that they will be coming to take on the Auburn Tigers on Saturday, October 25 at 7:00 p.m.
The Auburn baseball team will host the Banana Ball All-Starts in a fall exhibition game at Plainsman Park.
“We’re excited to bring Banana Ball to Plainsman Park, creating a great opportunity and experience for both our players and our fans,” head coach Butch Thompson said. “This is currently one of the hottest tickets in baseball, and it should be a great night on The Plains.”
The two teams will play under Banana Ball rules, and the contest will be broadcast for free on the Bananas’ YouTube channel.
Tickets for the match-up will go on sale at a later date, with the Savannah Bananas exclusively managing all general admission and standard reserved ticket inventory – these tickets will not be available to the general public.
Auburn Baseball will manage the sale of all parking as well as premium ticketing inventory within Plainsman Park. The right field Back Forty Terrace at Plainsman Park, presented by the Auburn University Bookstore, will be available for Auburn students, with more details to come.
The game against the Banana Ball All-Stars marks one of Auburn’s two fall exhibition games, the second of which will be announced at a later date.
