Fans interested in making a reservation can do so by completing our Batting Practice at First Horizon Park reservation form. After filling out the online form, a member of the Sounds staff will be in touch to discuss booking, waivers, safety measures and possible add-ons.
Batting Practice bookings take place rain or shine. In the event of inclement weather, the Sounds front office will offer groups access to the indoor, climate-controlled batting cages. If the field is wet from previous weather, your event will still proceed, but it will be moved to the batting cages. The Sounds staff will notify you in advance if the field conditions are deemed unplayable.

BP bookings are a rain or shine event. If inclement weather occurs during your event, the Sounds front office will provide groups access to the Sounds indoor climate controlled batting cages. If the field is wet due to past inclement weather, your event is still good to go, but will be switched to inside the batting cage. The Sounds staff will communicate in advance when the field conditions are unplayable.
Tax not included.
Third and Home
Less than a minute from where groups will be taking batting practice sits Third and Home, Germantown's bar with a ballpark.
The restaurant/bar offers a classic food and drink menu that is perfect for any post-BP celebration. In addition, the patio facing the field makes a great BP observation deck for bar patrons.
Reminder: All BP participants will receive a $5 gift card voucher for Third and Home. And if you time it right, catch Happy Hour from 4-7p Wednesday through Friday.
