I have said many times that we are extremely fortunate to have a professional baseball team in our backyard, not to mention a team that won the championship last season.
The 2015 Defending Eastern Champion Binghamton Mets will returning to action April 9th.

The home opener will be April 16th as NYSEG stadium will once again come alive with fans, food & drink, and those two magic words, 'play ball'!

Your Binghamton Mets are giving you a chance to celebrate the past year and dine with the players at the annual Welcome Back B-Mets Dinner, Tuesday, April 7 at the Holiday Inn in Downtown Binghamton.

Tickets are $25.00 per person.and will help support education through local scholarship programs.

B-Mets players and mascots will arrive at 5:30 PM for the Meet the Mets autograph reception. Dinner will be served promptly at 7:00 PM followed by a special baseball program with team and manager introductions.

Come out and support your Eastern League Champions, the Binghamton Mets!
