Nothing says summer like a baseball game. With a hot dog or popcorn in hand, you and your family can enjoy the history-steeped sport. Prince George’s is a fitting spot to participate in this time-honored activity, with its roots in African-American sandlot baseball culture, popular segregated leagues, and a modern shift into a thriving baseball locale.

 

Today, you can watch the local Minor League Baseball team, the Chesapeake Baysox, at Prince George’s Stadium in Bowie. This Double-A affiliate team of the Baltimore Orioles plays in the Eastern League.

 

Attending a game is always a cheerful and festive event. The team often runs promotions and themed nights to bring a little extra fun. On some game nights, people can bring their dogs. On others, kids are allowed to get on the field, run the bases, or get autographs from the players. Many nights feature a fireworks display and a giveaway item.

 

For a little extra entertainment, head to Prince George’s Stadium for Banana Ball. This version of baseball is focused on bringing more merriment and amusement to the sport. This fans-first version is fast-paced and keeps the crowd on their feet for all the action. The atmosphere is exciting, the stunts are spectacular, and the videos frequently go viral. 

 

On July 31 and August 1, 2026, the Indianapolis Clowns and Loco Beach Coconuts — the Banana Ball Championship League’s two newest teams — will be playing at the stadium. The experience is bound to be a thrilling and captivating one. Check out the schedule to book your tickets, and learn the sport’s unique rules so you can enjoy the game even more.

 

Prince George’s has long been a haven for baseball players and fans. Attending a game at the stadium will connect you to that history and bring a little extra joy into your day.
