The festivities kick off when gates open at 5:00 p.m., with the main event beginning at 6:30 p.m. The evening will also honor retired Navy SEAL Robert O’Neill, who will throw the ceremonial first pitch.

Will Jose Canseco still crush a ball over 450 feet? Can Antonio Brown handle a baseball bat? Is Eric Sim, aka “The King of Juco,” the real deal? These questions and more will be answered on October 5 during this thrilling night of competition and surprises.
