It just might be possible to snag Banana Ball tickets for PNC Field, even if you didn’t win the random drawing.

The Banana Ball league sells out venues with its blend of real baseball, acrobatic antics and dance routines. The Loco Beach Coconuts and the Firefighters will play two games on May 22-23 at the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders’ stadium in Moosic.

All 10,000 seats are expected to sell out for each game.

“Banana Ball is going to be such a fun event at PNC Field,” Shawn Reilly, the RailRiders’ president and general manager, said via email. “We have not seen anything of this magnitude over the last few years. The popularity of Banana Ball is still growing and it’s a thrill watching the fervor build.”

Former Philadelphia Phillie Shane Victorino, who won the 2005 International League MVP trophy as a Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Red Baron, is a “prime time coach” for the Coconuts. He doesn’t come to every game and it isn’t known if he will attend.

The main chance to buy tickets required entering a free lottery in October. The lucky and unlucky recently got the news by email. Season ticket holders who paid their RailRiders bill by Dec. 19 were automatically added to the pool of lottery winners. Around 85% of season ticket holders have expressed interest.

Lottery winners and season ticket holders can log on to the Bananas sales website beginning Jan. 28 to try to buy up to five tickets, beginning at $35. Act promptly, said Adam Marco, the RailRiders director of communications. Tickets are not guaranteed.

But there are other ways.

Owners of private suites are at the front of the line, with the right of first refusal on their seats.

Anyone can try to buy VIP, suite and hospitality area tickets. However, the team has already received more than 2,000 requests, many of them for multiple tickets. The sales staff is working through the list now. To be added to the waiting list, go to milb.com/scranton-wb/events/banana-ball-2026.

Those ticket prices begin at $75. For $3,250, up to 16 people can split the cost of a suite.

The RailRiders hope that the sales figures will help convince Banana Ball to schedule three games next year.
