That was awesome. I used to snag fly balls in practice behind my back while doing my best Ric Flair “WHOOO!” Of course, I ran MANY hot laps for it. We need to make this an annual game.

I cannot believe the lack of complaining old men here

Thought the pro full speed collisions at home and anti pitch clock crowds would be out in force, I'm disappointed. They must not have watched it.

It was great fun. Could not believe that guy on stilts pitching. And loved fans catching a foul ball was an out. All of those banana players were ex semi-pro which means they had to be pretty good to get drafted and signed by a major league team.
We do need to work on our truck plays. Also would like to see the pitch hurry up in actual baseball games.
Lots of fun.

I watched this on live on YouTube with my 2 year old son who is just obsessed with baseball and it was a blast. He was dancing with the players and jumping around when they did flips and what not. I'm really hoping we get to attend the game in Death Valley in April because it will probably be a blast to see in person too.
I also loved that we did this. Erik Bakich is a Leggett legacy, so he's really a no-nonsense, buttoned up type of guy usually--I mean we don't even let guys have facial hair except for when the team grows mustaches--but he took his dang shirt off infront of 5,000 people (he's absolutely shredded for a guy in his 40s.) To see this side of him and the guys was so cool. I don't know if this is something that will ever happen again, because the Bananas are so in-demand, but I truly hope we see the Bananas come back again in the future--it's a good recruiting tool as well. You're already seeing the Dion Brown, Purify, McCladdie dance and pitch video go viral.

It was an awesome show and glad I was able to be there.
Yes, Bakich is a Leggett legacy but Leggett when Leggett came to Clemson he just continued what Wilhelm did with the all white pants (literslly known in all of college baseball as the "Clemson Pant", white shoes (cleaned) no long hair, no facial hair, etc. It defines Clemson Baseball. Eric Bakich is not at all a buttoned up guy. He loves to have fun and let the guys have fun but do it in a classy way that Clemson Baseball has always been. Personally, I'm glad they are out there with long hair hanging out of their hats with beards or goatees and jewelry all around their neck. Don't want an entire team looking like Tommy White for sure.

My son plays baseball (HS and Travel)
It ended for fall two weeks ago and World Series is over so for someone that watches a LOT of games last night was a fun way to go into the off season!
I loved it!

What a great time had by all! To include the fans in the antics is a great idea!
Hopefully I'll see them in The Valley!
