If you haven’t experienced Banana Ball, you’re in for a treat (and possibly a backflip). The Savannah Bananas have turned traditional baseball on its head, adding fan participation, dancing umpires, walk-off celebrations after every inning, and a two-hour game clock that guarantees non-stop action.
The Texas Tailgaters will be on the opposite side of the field, a hard-hitting, high-energy squad bringing Texas-sized swagger and a flair for the dramatic. Known for their competitive edge and crowd-pleasing antics, the Tailgaters are more than up for the challenge, and Saturday’s matchup is shaping up to be a highlight of the tour.
A few rules to know before you catch one of the most exciting nights in baseball:
If a fan catches a foul ball, the batter is out, making the crowd part of the defense. Bunting is banned because in Banana Ball, it’s considered disrespectful to the spirit of the game. Each inning is treated like a mini-game, with one point awarded to the team that scores the most runs in that inning.
And don’t forget the walk-up routines, players turn their entrances into full-blown performances that could win awards.
