Auburn baseball will host the Banana Ball All-Stars in a fall exhibition game at Plainsman Park on Saturday, October 25 at 7 p.m., the Savannah Bananas announced Monday.
“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 in a release. “This is currently one of the hottest tickets in baseball, and it should be a great night on The Plains.”
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 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 will be available for Auburn students with more details to come.
The game, which is one of two exhibitions Auburn will play this fall – the second to be announced at a later date – will be played under Banana Ball rules, and the game will be broadcast for free on the Savannah Bananas YouTube channel.
