SPARTANBURG, S.C., Oct. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Last year, a postseason Grand Slam turned into a nationwide giveaway when Denny's served up free breakfasts to fans across the country. Now, America’s Diner is stepping back up to the plate with an even bigger promise: if a triple play is turned by either team during the 2026 Baseball Championship Series (October 23–31), every U.S. Denny’s Rewards member will score a free Triple Play® Combo Meal.
“America’s Diner and America’s pastime go back a long way together,” said Chris Bode, president and chief executive officer of Denny’s. The Triple Play Combo gives Guests a full meal at a great price, and this offer gives them an even better reason to come in. If there’s a triple play in the 2026 Baseball Championship Series, we’ll welcome our Rewards members into the booth to celebrate, on us.
