Binghamton Rumble Ponies, Hartford Yard Goats, New Hampshire Fisher Cats, Portland Sea Dogs, Reading Fightin' Phils, Somerset Patriots, Akron RubberDucks, Altoona Curve, Bowie Baysox, Erie SeaWolves, Harrisburg Senators, Richmond Flying Squirrels. Unfortunately, marketers mostly have come to the conclusion that minor league baseball is kind of an embarrassing burlesque of an enterprise and have decided to lean into that and encourage teams to sell themselves as such. Altoona curve is named after the Horseshoe Curve. I love minor league games!

    Wow remember when you could get a real paper ballot at the drug store and mail it in? Sponsored by Gillette. You punched out your choices and wrote in your Mets that weren't on it. Those were the days

    Sadly I missed this entire homestand due to life complications, and the Syracuse Mets aren't back in town until Tuesday, 6/28. My employer has decided to hold a "company night" on Thursday, 6/30, so the Fman family plus my mother in law will all be there that evening. Free tickets, pretty sweet deal there. Go anyway. You had prior plans to employer or MIL stuff

    Dad and I use to stay up for these
