2006 Rickwood Classic
The 2006 Rickwood Classic is the 11th game in the annual series of "throwback" games played by the Birmingham Barons in vintage-style uniforms at Birmingham's historic Rickwood Field
The 2006 matchup is scheduled for 12:35 PM on June 22 against the Tennessee Smokies. The uniforms will be white with navy blue pinstripes and blue caps styled after those worn by the 1953-56 Birmingham Barons when they were affiliated with the New York Yankees.
During the game, the 2006 class of the newly-created Birmingham Barons Hall of Fame will be announced. The first 1,500 adults through the turnstiles will receive a Rick Woodward bobblehead doll. Tickets are $9 for general admission and are available at the Hoover Met box office.
The primary sponsor of the game is State Farm Insurance.
