Burns/Strider pitching in Bristol on Saturday

[Sea Ray]

Burns will be the Reds starter in the Speedway Classic this weekend. He'll be facing another guy from Tennessee (Knoxville actually), Spencer Strider

Moved this to a new thread.

I was curious if anyone is going this weekend? Some how I hadn't heard about this until now. Seems like it would be a fun time.

(and I know, Burns is a traitor, not a VFL, etc. etc. Let's leave that discussion in that thread please.)

I am going, but it is easy for me. 10 min from home. Tony V is going to be part of a show downtown Friday night that I am going to also. Just wish I could have found a 2024 College World Series ball to get signed.

It’s early, but I’m guessing crowd numbers will be inflated. The big campgrounds I saw are maybe 10% capacity of a Cup race, granted this is a one day event.

Braves, Reds awed by sights as MLB hits Bristol

The scene at Bristol Motor Speedway had the Braves and Reds raving as the "iconic" racetrack played host to the first MLB game in the state of Tennessee on Saturday.

Players got to do some once in a lifetime type things.

Also saw some place that afterwards, BMS is donating the playing field to ETSU...so that's pretty cool too.
