Baseball fans, start your engines.
Major League Baseball announced Friday that NASCAR’s iconic Bristol Motor Speedway will host a regular-season MLB game for the first time next year.
The game is set for Aug. 2, 2025, between the Atlanta Braves and the Cincinnati Reds. It will also be the first in-season MLB game to be held in Tennessee.
“We look forward to celebrating our game with a wide array of fans, both on and off the field throughout the weekend, and highlighting the rich traditions of sports, music and community in Tennessee and across the region,” MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred said in a statement.
The Bristol Motor Speedway is one of the largest sporting venues in America with a seating capacity of close to 150,000.
