In addition to the game, there will be music, food and family-friendly activities. Fans who want a chance to meet their favorite baseball players can also get free autographs at Fan Fest, happening on Aug. 10 from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. and Aug. 11 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Those who don’t have tickets to the game can still get a taste of the action at the free viewing party at City Square on Aug. 11, starting at 6 p.m.
