MLB transforms Bristol Motor Speedway for a leading baseball event

Bristol, tenn. – A record crowd will be present next weekend at the Bristol Motor Speedway for the first “ Speedway Classic ” which will see the braves of Atlanta face the Reds of Cincinnati inside the place known as “ Colosseum ”, thanks to Major League Baseball and Fox.

Having previously organized an event outside the standard, Speedway officials are ready to break in another first for the historic place, while baseball fans will descend to East Tennessee for this highly anticipated game which takes place in a race track.

Friday, Bristol officials visited the Outkick of what was going to happen next Saturday. While the day will start with fans who flood an outdoor party which includes a concert by Tim McGraw, Jake Owens and Pitbull, the real show begins when the two teams will go to the field for a confrontation that will take place on the field of the gigantic speedway.

As you will see if you are witnessing it, entering this gigantic place for a baseball match will undoubtedly marry you, if an overview of Friday was an indication.

Having spent the last years planning this Baseball event of Major League which will be broadcast on Fox, Speedway officials have enabled the construction team to do what they do best, which is put in place something more imaginable.

Even if I covered the “ battle in Bristol ” years ago, which saw Tennessee and Virginia Tech Face-Off on a football field inside the cathedral, I must admit that this baseball event seems that the leaders of the track intensified it in suspense when it comes to expanding their state of mind on major events.

Fortunately for the fans who present, there is really no bad seat in the house, thanks to the construction teams who worked 24 hours a day to ensure that the lawn is ready for the major baseball league.

Interior striking cages, the enclosure of outdoor readers and insane configuration, this is really one of the most imaginative events in the history of recent events.

While the football match was entertaining, it is obvious that the president of the track Jerry Caldwell thought a lot about the organization of this event, which started when the MLB noticed that the track organized a university football match.

Now, with the grass at the bottom and the temporary stands in configuration, it all starts to meet for the exciting event. Although the leaders of the track did not publish the number of tickets sold, they told Outkick that this baseball event would be recorded in terms of presence.

Unique event at Bristol Motor Speedway for MLB fans

In addition to the action that will take place on the field, next Saturday will be completed with many events for families and fans, which includes a tailgate party outside the track, before people start to make their way inside the huge stadium.

The concerts will start before the match at 6 p.m. on the interior field scene, while the two teams warm up on the magnificent field.

For fans sitting in the outside field, don’t worry, there will be an opportunity to catch a lot of circuits, since there will be no fence configuration in the outside field.

It is easy to see that all parties have spent a lot of money to assemble this event. Although we could not see what the club house looks like for the two teams, they seem quite massive, as well as the pitching and in-room striker areas for the players.

If you look at you, don’t worry. The Fox broadcast will have many interesting events for the television public, although Bristol officials have kept these silencers for the moment.

Make sure to follow the Outkick platforms and myself for the cover of the event next weekend, with Fox.
