The Fayetteville Observer (NC) reports that “the Atlanta Braves and Miami Marlins will play a nationally televised baseball game at Fort Bragg this summer in a ballpark erected for the occasion.”

“Officials from the military and Major League Baseball announced the historic game Tuesday.”

“The matchup isn’t an exhibition — it’s a regular-season game that will be shown on ESPN.”
