Another pitch for a good Syracuse Mets game

We’ve got tickets to see the Syracuse Mets at NBT Bank Stadium for an afternoon game today. The four of us are hoping it’s as cheerful as the 5-2 victory on opening day, that’s for sure. You’ll get photographs from our seats behind the Mets’ dugout on the third-base side in the coming week …

Another look at the Mets’ stadium comforts

On my earlier posts about our opening day fun at the Syracuse Mets’ season opening game at NBT Bank Stadium, I left some of my captures of NBT Bank Stadium improvements for … today. Down the left field line, looking out past the outfield fence, you’ll note a bar where fans can gather and watch…

And here’s the pitch

A full game of Syracuse Mets vs. Scranton/Wilkes Barre Rail Riders Triple A baseball from these seats on opening day May 4, 2021 was fairly fabulous. And my hometown Mets won, 5-2. May this season brings plenty of great games for us four.

The best seats for the Syracuse Mets ever

What the heck, I figured at the Syracuse Mets box office 14 months ago. Let’s spring for the new feature. Table top seating. Behind home plate. Sure, they go for $25 a pop buying ahead of time (more if you happen to get them on the day of game), but this could be a one-time…

Cheers for Opening Day with the Syracuse Mets

After buying tickets for opening day way back in March 2020, my dear wife Karen, terrific daughter Elisabeth, George Three and I finally got to gather at NBT Bank Stadium to cheer for the Syracuse Mets on Tuesday, May 4. Yes, a whole season had been canceled by COVID-19. We had our names engraved on…

Our fandom stands forever

While waiting to secure tickets for May 4th opening day, I strolled over to the brick sections outside of NBT Bank Stadium. Elisabeth’s fantastic gift has been added to the lovely fan section. Thank you, dear daughter! We will visit our brick and smile every game we attend, I am sure.

It pays to be an early bird

Ticket Trade-in Day for the Syracuse Mets started at 10 a.m. one day last week. I received permission from my boss at the library to report in late. I had the four tabletop seats from last season’s canceled opening day still sitting in my dresser. George Three had a coupon book of unused vouchers for…

She does watch the games with us on TV

The Syracuse Mets put out a call for photographs that will be used for life-sized seat fillers at NBT Bank Stadium once their Triple-A baseball season starts come May. You’ve seen them at various major league and college sports if you’ve watched events on TV throughout our time of COVID-19, I assume. Our minor-league team…

Baseball back here, please

My terrific daughter and George Three combined my love of a great shirt and a certain baseball squad with a fine Christmas gift this year. So when I pull on this long-sleeved beauty, I’m warm with thoughts that maybe come spring, 2021 can bring the return of our Syracuse Mets. Missing the 2020 season for…

Poor sports

I looked at the passenger side of my car and noticed the top side of my Syracuse Mets decal had been peeled away. I stood in my driveway and pondered. This did not look like a natural-occurring situation. Yes, my pursuits had taken me to several parking lots in the not too-previous-past. I think somebody…
