The 2026 Banana Ball schedule was released on Thursday, but the current season concluded on Saturday night with the Banana Ball Tour Championship Final at Grayson Stadium.
The final match was between the Party Animals and the Firefighters, with the Party Animals advancing after defeating the Tailgaters, and the Firefighters beating the Bananas.
The Party Animals won the final 4-0, thanks largely to starting pitcher Garett Delano, who pitched seven innings and had 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,” said Delano.
Delano has been with the team since 2022.
