The Atlanta Braves face the Cincinnati Reds in a unique backdrop inside Bristol Motor Speedway. Tickets for the 2025 MLB Speedway Classic game are still available on major third-party sites.

The Atlanta Braves and Cincinnati Reds will face off on August 2 in the MLB Speedway Classic, the first MLB game ever to be played in Tennessee.

The trouble with playing a regulation MLB game at Bristol Motor Speedway is that, well, the venue is what the name suggests: A motor speedway.

For players, fans and media types, one of the hottest topics leading into the glitzy showcase involved a large-scale magic act that will unfold on Aug. 2 in Bristol, Tennessee.

Motor Speedway won't be filled with the deafening sound of roaring engines. Instead, fans will watch a regular-season MLB game at the racetrack.
