MLB history will be made tonight in Tennessee.
The first MLB Speedway Classic, a regular-season game between the Atlanta Braves and the Cincinnati Reds played on the infield of a NASCAR speedway, will mark the league’s first time ever playing a game in Tennessee and it’s set to break the MLB’s single-game attendance record.
Baseball at a race track? You heard that right! A baseball diamond was constructed between turns three and four at Bristol Motor Speedway. It’s almost symmetrical, with 330 feet down the right and left field lines, and 400 feet to center.
