Last season, the Bananas' stop in Las Vegas also featured former Phillies All-Star Shane "The Flyin' Hawaiian" Victorino getting on base.
Who knows, maybe once they get to Philly at the end of summer, the Bananas could have another former Phillies great take the field.
How can I get tickets to see the Savannah Bananas in Philly?
The game takes place at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 21.
The Bananas sold tickets -- starting at $35 -- through their Banana Ball ticketing lottery, which closed back in December.
A team representative told NBC10 that the tickets for the CBP are all claimed. That means you are going to have to go to the second-hand market to catch the Sept. 21 game.
