What’s not to love about Dirk Nowitzki?! He’s an NBA Champ, MVP, and the longest-running NBA player to spend his entire 21-season career with one team. Known as Swish 41, he’s the sixth all-time NBA scorer and North Texas’ most treasured hometown hero. Come see our own beloved basketball legend as he trades in one ball for another at Dirk Nowitzki’s 2019 Heroes Celebrity Baseball Game on June 7th!

This fun family event benefits the children’s charities of The Dirk Nowitzki Foundation and Heroes Foundation. For the 18th year, two baseball teams – each made up of celebrity and amateur players – will slug it out for seven innings of hilarious (and often mediocre) baseball! This game marks Dirk’s eighth year playing Heroes Celebrity Baseball and you never know who will show up on the celebrity roster. Additional celebrity players will be announced as the game nears.
Game goers are encouraged to come out early for family-fun festivities and a Heroes Special Olympics All-Star Softball Game. A 10-minute post-game fireworks finale will round out the evening. Here’s all the info you need to get your tickets for Dirk Nowitzki’s 2019 Heroes Celebrity Baseball Game:
