Hometown Hero

Presented by Humana

Honor Your Hometown Hero!

At every home game, the Louisville Bats pause to salute the brave men and women who have dedicated their lives to defending our freedom. Our Hometown Hero of the Game program is a tribute to the courage and sacrifice of our Armed Forces members—past and present.

Do you know a service member who deserves a standing ovation? We invite you to share their story with us.

  • Selection: Heroes are chosen based on nominations and game-day availability.
  • Notification: If your nominee is selected, a Bats staff member will contact you to coordinate their recognition at Louisville Slugger Field.
  • How to Nominate: Click the button above to fill out our form. Please include a brief description of their service and why you believe they should be honored as our Hometown Hero.

Heroes Suite

Take the Salute to the Next Level

While our Hometown Hero honors individuals between innings, our Heroes Suite offers a full-game luxury experience for groups up to 22. It’s the ultimate way to provide our local service members and first responders with a night of relaxation and camaraderie.
