Grab your peanuts and Cracker Jacks® and let’s go out to a ball game! Whether you’re a casual fan or the game’s most fervent aficionado, you’ll love watching baseball on Harrisburg’s City Island. Make plans to bring the family or circle a game day as part of a guys weekend or girlfriend getaway.
Island Baseball
FNB Field is home to the Harrisburg Senators, the Double-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals. The stadium is uniquely situated on a 63-acre island in the middle of the Susquehanna River. If you haven’t caught a Susquehanna sunset from the cheap seats in left field or a boardwalk barstool, put it on your bucket list. A pedestrian-only walking bridge connects City Island to Riverfront Park and Downtown Harrisburg, giving fans easy access to explore more of Harrisburg on gamedays.
Future Stars
A long list of minor-leaguers-turned-MLB sensations get their start here in Harrisburg. Huge names like Bryce Harper, Steven Strasburg, and Juan Soto played here before heading to the Big Show, and stars sometimes come back to Harrisburg for brief injury rehab assignments.
Did You Know? The FNB Field is home to the one and only life size bobblehead Hall of Fame.

Rascal the River Monster
Who doesn’t love a cuddly blue river monster? Rascal loves meeting fans and has been cheering on cheering on the Senators every season since 1998.
