Bay FC is coming to Oracle Park.

The Bay Area’s NWSL team will take its show on the road to San Francisco on Aug. 23, playing a regular-season game against the Washington Spirit in a showcase setting at the Giants’ home ballpark.

“Oracle Park is an iconic venue and has proven across its 25-year history to be a gathering place for the most passionate fans in sports,” Bay FC CEO Brady Stewart said in a release. “We’re eager for the opportunity to create league history alongside the Washington Spirit by being the first professional women’s teams to play at Oracle Park. Playing a match in San Francisco allows us to connect with our fans from around the Bay Area in an incredible setting.”

This is not Bay FC’s first time playing in a baseball stadium. During its inaugural season last year, Bay FC defeated the Chicago Stars 2-1 in front of an NWSL-record crowd of 35,038 fans at Wrigley Field.
