The events can feature a range of activities including fashion shows, player visits, live music, giveaways, Fields of Fashion gift bags, manicures by OPI and more. The effort is a partnership between Major League Baseball and a group of its licensees including Nike, 5th and Ocean, Alex and Ani, '47 Brand, Dooney & Bourke, Majestic, OPI Nail polish, and more, to create a special event for women out for a night out at the ballpark.
Contrary to what the MLB might think, here are some activities that women actually enjoy during “a night out at the ballpark" besides fashion:
1. Watching a baseball game and hoping their team wins.
2. Cheering for the team when something good happens.
3. Booing the other team when they do something that hurts your team's chances of winning.
4. Not doing The Wave.
5. Shootin' the shit about seasons and players past.
