A sea of yellow will take over Fenway Park again when the Savannah Bananas return to Boston for two games in summer 2025.

The viral exhibition team will play the Firefighters at the historic ballpark just after the Fourth on July 5-6 as part of their “2025 Banana Ball World Tour.”

Who are the Savanah Bananas?

The Bananas, essentially baseball’s Harlem Globetrotters, made their first appearance at the home of the Red Sox for a sold-out game this past June.

The game featured cameos from three Red Sox champions and a Red Sox Hall of Fame pitcher. Jonathan Papelbon, Mitch “2-bags” Moreland, Jonny Gomes, and Bill “Spaceman” Lee each appeared in yellow jerseys, either taking the mound or the batter box for Savannah.
