The Brazos Valley Bombers baseball team announces its 2025 home schedule. This comes after the Bryan city council in July 2024 approved letting the Bombers have exclusive use of what the city calls Travis Major Field until the current agreement expires at the end of 2025. The council’s decision also included soliciting proposals for operating the ballpark starting in 2026. Since the July 2024 council decision, the city spokeswoman tells WTAW News that there have been “many meetings” with the Bombers owner. The spokeswoman also says the city will start accepting those proposals “in the coming weeks”. The city has “encouraged” the Bombers owner to submit a proposal. And for other interested parties, they will be required to accommodate the Bombers schedule. Statement from the city of Bryan to WTAW News: The decision made at the July 18 Council Meeting was: The Bryan City Council voted unanimously to rescind its termination notice with the condition that the current Exclusive Facility Use Agreement will allow the City of Bryan to issue Request for Proposals after 60 days from July 18, 2024. The current agreement ends Dec. 31, 2025. The city has had many meetings with Infinity Sports Entertainment, LLC since then. The city will be issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) in the coming weeks for the management of Travis Major Field (Edible Field). The RFP will include working with Infinity to accommodate the Brazos Valley Bombers’ schedule. Infinity is also encouraged to submit an RFP as well.
