The Dubois County Bombers Charities, in partnership with Visit Dubois County, are excited to present the inaugural Big League Baseball Classic at League Stadium on Sat, Aug. 10th 2024. Join us as we welcome former big league legends from the MLB (Major League Baseball) as they visit historic League Stadium for an exhibition game you won't want to miss!
Bring the entire family for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet and watch former big name players UP CLOSE from the St. Louis Cardinals, Chicago Cubs, Cincinnati Reds, New York Yankees (and others) as they play a 7-inning exhibition game with other former major-leaguers, minor-leaguers, local players, and even local celebrities!
A legendary game calls for some legendary coaches and we didn't have to look far. In fact, we didn't even have to leave Dubois County. A couple of state championship-winning coaches, respected rivals, and Indiana baseball icons (Gene Mattingly of Southridge High School and Terry Gobert of Jasper High School) will be leading our two teams. Coach Mattingly will be assisted by Andy Lasher of Oakland City University and Coach Gobert will be assisted by Trevor McConnell of Barr-Reeve High School.
All players to be announced soon! Who are these legends, you ask? Is Ozzie Smith or Don Mattingly playing? (No, probably not--but you never know). Are players who were multi-year MLB All Stars, World Series Champions, Gold Glove Winners, Silver Slugger Winners, Organization Hall-Of-Famers, and Household Baseball Names playing? (Yes!)
All players will be announced individually leading up to the game. More details here.
