SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Bay FC will play the Washington Spirit in a National Women's Soccer League match at Oracle Park, home of baseball's San Francisco Giants.
Bay FC hopes the Aug. 23 match will attract an NWSL record of 40,000-plus fans to the ballpark on the San Francisco Bay.
"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 and thankful to the San Francisco Giants for their support of our ambitions,” Bay CEO Brady Stewart said in a statement Tuesday.
