The souvenir features third baseman Rafael Devers with a glow-in-the-dark Lightsaber bat. An amusing video posted by the MLB shows various footage of the team using lightsabers for bats and getting hit with blasters as they make their way around the bases.
Included in the event, fans were treated to special Star Wars-themed photo ops, along with appearances from cosplayers and various fan groups. Those who arrived early received a free Lightsaber inflatable.
TikTok creator @FoxHound1984 shared a couple of videos from the soirée, which looked like a blast…no pun intended! Some of the epic costumes included the Mandalorian and Grogu, Kylo Ren, Princess Padmé Amidala, Han Solo, and more.
