NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The Nashville Sounds and Centerplate, the team's hospitality partner, unveiled an array of new food and beverage offerings for the 2017 baseball season today. The new items feature a mix of Nashville comfort foods and new creative items that are intended to provide a top-notch gastronomic experience for guests who come to the ballpark to enjoy a game.

"We're excited to start the new season and kick our food and beverage program into overdrive," said Centerplate General Manager David Keitel. "We really spent time in the offseason listening to our fans, testing out new products and visiting local vendors in order to continue enhancing an in-stadium viewing experience that is one of the best in any sport."

The new general concourse menu additions are highlighted by a new Mesquite Smoked Prime Rib Sandwich, shaved thin and smothered with aged local buttermilk white cheddar, creamy horseradish sauce and red jalapeno slices. New Smoked Prime Rib Nash-chos will be covered with white cheese sauce, garden fresh tomatoes and spring onions. Fans are also sure to enjoy the new Black Hawk Farms Burger, a grass-fed, grain-finished, rich, buttery beef with no hormones or antibiotics. Also, the only way to improve on the classic Prime Rib Philly Cheesesteak is for you to now smoke the beef yourself, shave it thin and use it to make your cheesesteak.

The Band Box outdoor bar and restaurant in right field, as always, will feature several entertainment options - ping-pong, miniature golf, shuffleboard and more. New additions to the unique menu, which can only be found in right field, include:
