MLB will play a regular-season game for the first time in Tennessee next season, Commissioner Rob Manfred announced today. MLB Speedway Classic ’25 will pit the Braves and Reds at one of NASCAR’s most popular tracks on Aug. 2, with a baseball diamond being built across the track and infield at Bristol Motor Speedway.

 

MLB Speedway Classic ’25 is set to become the latest game to be hosted at a memorable venue like the Field of Dreams in Dyersville, Iowa, and Rickwood Field in Birmingham, Ala. For more information, visit mlb.com/speedwayclassic.
