The Grammy-winning country group will be doing a special on-field performance at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Mo., ahead of the derby on July 9.
The band will perform “Chicken Fried,” and it will air on the MLB Network to close out “MLB Tonight: All-Star Edition.” Then they will sing their new single, “The Wind.” It will air on ESPN just before the Home Run Derby gets underway.
