The Savannah Bananas, an unconventional baseball team known for their entertaining and family-friendly style of play called "Banana Ball," are in Chicago for the first time to play at Rate Field. Their games, characterized by unique rules such as batters being able to steal first base, fans catching foul balls for outs, a Golden Batter, and a Showdown tiebreaker, have attracted millions of fans nationwide. The team is playing two games in Chicago this weekend, both of which are sold out. The Bananas have been described as the "Harlem Globetrotters of baseball" due to their stunts, trick plays, and dancing. Their Banana Ball games are also being broadcast on TruTV and HBO Max at 8 p.m. ET. Members of the team have appeared on local news to discuss their style of play and the excitement around their Chicago visit, which has also drawn praise from White Sox legends.
