“The Navigator’s games are full of family fun and entertainment during and in-between innings including: Races around the bases, dizzy bat races, chasing mascots, and we’re still working on some other fun games [and] contests,” said Chris Carillo, the xoordinator of the event and the Navigator's ticket agent.

When asked what sets the June 26 game apart from others, Cardillo said, “This game is one of the more popular games on our schedule, simply because it provides fans the opportunity to see some of the best up and coming baseball players from all over the country. The members of Team USA are not draft eligible, but most players end up being drafted, so it’s exciting to come out and see some future [Major League Baseball] stars in the making.”
The Navigators are quite the team as well, and are the defending New England Collegiate Baseball League champions.
Cardillo also explained the easiest way to get seats when he said, “Tickets range from $6 to $8 depending on where the seat is and discounted tickets are available for groups of 15 or more. Fans can call at any time (781-595-9400) to purchase tickets and one of our staff will be more than happy to help.”
