The Savannah Bananas head into their postseason play with the No. 1 seed after beating the Texas Tailgaters to wrap up their regular-season slate.
Danny Barrels led the way for the Bananas with three hits on five at-bats, including a double, two triples and a walk-off home run to deliver the win.
The Bananas will return home for the 2025 Banana Ball playoffs at Grayson Stadium in Savannah, Georgia, from Oct. 2-11.
For the uninitiated, Banana Ball takes a unique spin on baseball in that each inning is worth one point, so a team earns a point if they win an inning. And in the final inning, every run counts as a point. There are no walks or bunts, foul balls caught by fans are considered outs, and a hitter can steal first base on any pitch during an at-bat.
