The Speedway Classic will set a new MLB single-game attendance record with over 85,000 tickets sold, surpassing the previous record of 84,587. The event will feature pregame ceremonies by the U.S. Navy and a ceremonial first pitch between Hall of Famers Chipper Jones and Johnny Bench.

Workers have some finishing touches to put on the field inside the racetrack at Bristol Motor Speedway, where officials are expecting a record crowd to watch the Cincinnati Reds play the Atlanta Braves in the MLB Speedway Classic next Saturday.

Atlanta will host an all-day event at the Paramount Theater in downtown Bristol called “Braves Pit Stop at Paramount Bristol” on Friday.
