Bristol Motor Speedway has completed its transformation from racetrack to MLB stadium.
The venue will host a game between the Atlanta Braves and Cincinnati Reds, known as the MLB Speedway Classic, on Aug. 2.
It should be a historic night for the league — the first MLB game played in the state of Tennessee is expected to set the league’s single-game attendance record.
Jeremiah Yolkut, the league’s senior vice president of global events, paid a visit to the racetrack in 2022 to explore the possibility of hosting a game at the venue.
