Banana Ball rules explained as game heads to Delaware this August

Banana Ball, a unique variant of baseball, is set to arrive in Delaware this August, showcasing teams from the Savannah Bananas franchise. Known for its unconventional rules, each inning awards a point based on runs scored, and games are limited to a two-hour duration. Fans can catch a foul ball for an out, and there are no walks or mound visits allowed. One of the new teams, the Loco Beach Coconuts, will compete against the Texas Tailgaters. The event is part of the Bananas' extensive tour across 45 states, with a total of 190 games scheduled in the season.
