ATLANTA – The Atlanta Braves are proud to host the annual weekend series between Historically Black College and University (HBCU) baseball programs, while honoring Braves Hall of Famers and HBCU graduates in the Ralph Garr-Bill Lucas HBCU Baseball Classic.
The 2024 weekend series will take place Friday, March 1 through Saturday, March 2 at Coolray Field, home of the Braves’ Triple-A affiliate, the Gwinnett Stripers.
The two-game series will feature Grambling State University and Florida A&M University, the alma maters of Braves Hall of Famers, Ralph Garr and Bill Lucas.
Designed to highlight baseball programs at historically black colleges and universities in the Southeast, the showcase is an extension of the Atlanta Braves’ efforts to foster the next generation of diverse baseball players.
