About Banana Ball

Known as “Banana Ball”, the Savannah Bananas fan-first and family-friendly take on America’s pastime strives to be the fastest and most entertaining game of baseball with rules that include no bunting, a two-hour time limit, fans catching foul balls for outs, batters stealing first base, and a one-on-one tiebreaker showdown at the end of the game if the game is tied. 

It marks the third consecutive year the Savannah Bananas will play at Busch Stadium after selling out two games this past August against the Loco Beach Coconuts. Busch Stadium would host another two games in July 2025 against the Party Animals. For more information, visit cardinals.com/bananas or thesavannahbananas.com.
