Savannah Bananas

Savannah, Georgia’s take on baseball looks different. The Bananas style leans hard into fast-paced, humorous, and crowd-first moments that turn Grayson Stadium into something more like a baseball party than watching a standard nine-inning game.¹

The team built its identity around interaction as much as competition, and that approach keeps the energy going throughout every home game.¹

Grayson Stadium deepens that feel. One of the oldest ballparks still operating, its tight seating and historic frame keep the action close enough for fans to be part of it.

The Bananas formed in 2016 after Savannah set out to bring organized baseball back to the city.^2,3 Their early years unfolded in the Coastal Plain League, where the Savannah Bananas became known for quick play and a fan-focused approach that helped them stand out fast.^1,3

Everything shifted in 2018 with the launch of Banana Ball — a shortened, reimagined version of baseball built around constant movement and direct engagement with the crowd. The format became the foundation for national tours and widespread attention, pushing the Bananas beyond the structure of a traditional league.^2,3

Each step forward kept the same idea in place: blend competition with showmanship and keep the fans at the center of it.^1,2

 Grayson Stadium sits inside Daffin Park and has been a part of baseball in Savannah since it first opened in 1926. Seating roughly 5,000, the park’s older layout pulls fans in close, especially around the baselines and grandstand.⁴

Hillside walkways and narrow concourse paths give the ballpark a simple, historic feel, and the smaller footprint means crowd reactions move through the stadium quickly.⁴

It’s a stadium built on history, but the Bananas have turned it into something fresh.

The Bananas’ rise includes on-field success, organizational honors, and the creation of a new version of the sport that reshaped how fans experience baseball.

• CPL Organizational Honors: During their time in the Coastal Plain League, the Bananas earned multiple league awards, including Organization of the Year and Best Game-Day Experience.³
• Banana Ball Development (2018): Introduced in 2018, Banana Ball became one of the team’s biggest achievements, growing from an experiment to a touring format that draws national audiences and helped reshape the team’s identity.^2,3
