The seventh annual event featuring MLB Clubs playing at Historic Bowman Field in Williamsport, PA is scheduled for Sunday, August 18, 2024, between the New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers.

The inaugural MLB Little League Classic launched successfully in 2017 with Major Leaguers from the Pittsburgh Pirates & St. Louis Cardinals spending time with Little Leaguers in a full, fun day-long celebration of baseball. Upon arrival in Williamsport, players from the teams took in the sights, sounds and action of the Little League World Series. That evening, they were able to demonstrate their skills and inspire the attentive Little Leaguers at Bowman Field. There was a winner for each MLB game, but what mattered most that entire day is that a bond was formed between all those who participated - no better evidence than the handshake line that the Major Leaguers formed following each of the contests..

The next iteration of the MLB Little League Classic at Historic Bowman Field, the home of the Williamsport Crosscutters of the collegiate MLB Draft League, will be hosted by MLB and the MLBPA. Once again, the participating players, coaches and families of the 2024 Little League Baseball World Series, as well as Williamsport-area residents, will fill a significant portion of the capacity at Bowman Field.
