Banana Ball blends entertainment and competitive baseball for a pastime time that’s catching on around the country. Parker Nolan ’22 is the latest scholar-athlete to get in on the fun.
To prepare for a 7 p.m. game, Parker Nolan ’22 and his teammates on the Firefighters arrive at the field around noon. This isn’t your average baseball game — it’s Banana Ball — which means rehearsing comedic moments, stunts, trick plays and dance breaks before fans start gathering outside.
