Big League Baseball Classic Returns to League Stadium on August 9th

Dubois County, IN – June 17, 2025 — The Big League Baseball Classic, presented by Dubois County Bombers Charities & Visit Dubois County, is returning to historic League Stadium on Saturday, August 9th, 2025, for what promises to be the biggest and most exciting version of the event yet. This one-of-a-kind throwback game brings former Major League Baseball stars back to the field at the stadium made famous in A League of Their Own. Confirmed MLB players include Vince Coleman, Jason Isringhausen, Scott Spiezio, Armando Galarraga, Jason Motte, Brian Jordan, Clayton Richard, Bryan Eversgerd, Josh Phegley and many others (plus former Dubois County Bombers legends, local high school and collegiate legends, and even local celebrities). 

New for 2025 is a pre-game Home Run Derby, where former MLB sluggers and Bombers alumni will go head-to-head in a power-packed exhibition. Also returning is the popular VIP Player Meet & Greet, which allows fans to meet the players, take photos, and collect autographs. VIP tickets are $25 and extremely limited.
​
This year’s event will also features a special partnership with Ray Howard and the Indiana Baseball Hall of Fame, giving fans the opportunity to engage with Indiana’s rich baseball history.

Tickets will go on sale to the public at 7:00 AM on Thursday, June 19th, and can be purchased at: www.bigleagueclassic.com.

“This is easily one of our most anticipated nights of the year,” said Justin Knepp, owner and team president of the Dubois County Bombers. “It’s not just about watching former big leaguers take the field—it’s about bringing generations of baseball fans together at a ballpark that’s overflowing with history. Partnering with Ray Howard and the Indiana Baseball Hall of Fame makes it even more special. And we’re incredibly grateful to Visit Dubois County for helping make it all possible. The Big League Baseball Classic is a true celebration of the game, and we couldn’t be more excited to bring it back in 2025.”

Gates open at 5:00 PM, the Home Run Derby begins at 5:30 PM, and first pitch is scheduled for 7 PM. The evening will include food, drinks, entertainment, and all the charm of vintage baseball under the lights.
