The 2026 Banana Ball schedule was released on Thursday, but before the new season begins, the current season concluded with the Banana Ball Tour Championship Final on Saturday night at Grayson Stadium.
The final match was between the Party Animals and the Firefighters. The Party Animals, seeded second, advanced to the final after defeating the Tailgaters, while the Firefighters secured their spot by beating the Bananas.
The Party Animals emerged victorious, winning 4-0, largely due to the outstanding performance of starting pitcher Garett Delano, who pitched seven innings and registered five strikeouts.
We dance, we do all kinds of stuff, we work fast, but I just focused on pitching. I felt like a pitcher again, and I’m better that way.
Delano, who started with the team in 2022, led the Party Animals to their championship win.
