Rumble Ponies Welcome New Owner as City Announces 23 Year Lease Extension for Double-A Mets New York-based Southpaw Resources LLC to assume ownership and help transform Mirabito Stadium to meet MLB’s new Facility Standards BINGHAMTON, NY – Mayor Richard C. David and the Rumble Ponies announced a 23-year lease extension at Mirabito Stadium early Thursday morning. As part of the agreement, $3.1M has been allocated to bring the facility into compliance with MLB’s new Facility Standards. The New York Mets Double-A team, which has been playing in downtown Binghamton since 1992, will now be able to call Mirabito Stadium home through 2045. “Signing a long-term lease is the final piece in securing baseball in Binghamton for a generation and beyond. Today’s announcement means the rising stars of Major League Baseball will continue to thrill fans and families at Mirabito Stadium for decades.” Said Mayor David, “I thank John Hughes for his leadership tenure with the franchise and I’m excited about the next chapter of professional baseball in Binghamton.” Additionally, effective today, New York-based Southpaw Resources LLC, led by David Sobotka, will assume ownership of the Rumble Ponies from John Hughes, Jr. of Evans Street Baseball. Sobotka is looking forward to expanding on the hard work and foundation laid by Hughes over the past 6 years. “We are beyond thrilled to join the Rumble Ponies and Mets family and be part of the bright future of professional baseball in Binghamton for many years to come. We will work tirelessly to keep earning the support of the entire Binghamton and Southern Tier communities while continuing to bring an exceptional baseball experience to fans and players alike.” Sobotka has already jumped into his new role, working closely with Mayor David to extend the lease for Mirabito Stadium. In the coming weeks and months, Southpaw will be focused on working with the City of Binghamton on plans to improve Mirabito Stadium to meet the new standards set forth by Major League Baseball. Mayor David noted, “Not that long ago, the future of baseball in our community was in doubt. Keeping our team was a win, but it meant meeting Major League Baseball’s new facility standards. With City Hall as an active partner in Binghamton’s baseball future, we’re making the necessary investments at Mirabito Stadium to secure a long-term lease extension. Working with David Sobotka, we’ve built the groundwork for a smooth transition, and more importantly, made sure Binghamton’s stadium can host future Major League Baseball stars for the next generation.” Sobotka also announced that John “JB” Bayne will stay on and continue as the General Manager of the Rumble Ponies, along with the entire staff who will remain in their current roles with the team. “Thanks to Senator Akshar, Mayor David, John Hughes and everyone else that’s been involved in the relationship we’ve enjoyed with the Binghamton community,” said Mets President Sandy Alderson. “Double-A is an important step in the process for players to develop into Major Leaguers and we appreciate that our team in Binghamton is in close proximity to Queens.” Evans Street Baseball, led by John Hughes Jr., saved baseball in Binghamton when Hughes purchased the team from Mike Urda and partners in December of 2015. Over his tenure, Hughes worked tirelessly to give back to the community, improve the fan experience, and modernize an outdated stadium. In partnership with Mayor David, Senator Akshar and Mr. Hughes, over $9 million dollars has been invested into the ballpark to replace seats, install new video scoreboards, build hospitality areas to draw fans to the stadium, and improve player amenities. Senator Fred Akshar said, "John Hughes is the #1 reason we still have professional baseball in Binghamton. On behalf of our community's families and baseball fans from across the Southern Tier, I'd like to express our deepest gratitude to John and his entire team for investing the time, resources and care needed to create the unprecedented excitement, momentum and success of the Binghamton Rumble Ponies we know today. Over the past several years, their commitment to our community has enabled me to work with our partners like Binghamton Mayor Rich David to secure funding for sweeping, transformative upgrades to Mirabito Stadium's facilities and fan experience. Today's announcement signals a renewed commitment to baseball in Binghamton, and I look forward to working with David Sobotka and the Southpaw Resources Team to continue building on the success of the Binghamton Rumble Ponies." Hughes created a new chapter of baseball in Binghamton when he rebranded and gave the community an identity of their own after 25 seasons as the B-Mets, bringing the Rumble Ponies identity to life. Hughes had this to say about his time as the Owner of the Double-A Mets, “The past 6 years have been an absolute dream come true. I am humbled and honored by the work that has been done, the experiences I have had and the friendships I will carry with me the rest of my life. From day one I have said, this team belongs to this community, so while it's a tough day for me personally, I have peace knowing the future of the Rumble Ponies is so bright." With a rich history of baseball in the Southern Tier, the Rumble Ponies look forward to continuing to be an integral part of the fabric of the community under the guidance of the Southpaw team, the Mets, and the City of Binghamton. Get ready as the vision for the 2022 Binghamton Rumble Ponies unfolds and exciting updates are laid out for the fans!

Season Tickets are on sale now, with Flex Books available for purchase the day after Thanksgiving, Friday, November 26th.

Four players slept on the 54-hole co-lead, but only one came out on top with the $1.5 million winner’s prize. After battling a wrist injury that kept her from practicing at the CME Group Tour Championship, Jin Young Ko still proved nothing can hold her back. Ko scorched Tiburon Golf Club with a sizzling 63, which tied her career-best score for 18 holes and set the new tournament scoring record at -23. The win also secured Ko her second Rolex Player of the Year award, as she becomes the first Korean player to achieve the feat twice. It is her 12th career victory and fifth of the season, becoming the first player to record five wins in a season since Ariya Jutanugarn in 2016. She is the third Korean to win five or more times in an LPGA Tour season, along with Sei Re Pak and Inbee Park. “I don't have pressure on the course. I just want to better play than the other players. So, I did it, and, yeah,” said Ko, who had more wins (five) than rounds in the 70s (four) in her last nine events. “Also, I'm happy to make like my best career score today, 63; 64 was my best score, record, but I crushed it and it's so happy.” Ko hit 63 straight greens in regulation to finish the week, with her last missed green in regulation on No. 9 in the first round. She recorded only one bogey over her last 63 holes played with 24 birdies in that stretch. Nine of those came on Sunday, including six on her front nine, closing with a 30 as she made the turn. When asked about the most important shot from the day, Ko said there were three. “Number one is No. 3 hole, second shot with the 7-iron. And number two on No. 8, par-3. I got maybe three feet. Yep, with a controlled 9-iron,” said Ko. “And No. 17, second shot with the 6-iron. I got two on so two-putt and made birdie.” Ko’s season was one for the ages. Despite no major championship titles, Ko walks away with the largest prize in women’s golf, a scoring average of 68.774, five victories and Rolex Player of the Year. But, the 26-year-old only has one thing on her mind this offseason. “I want to keep the golf clubs at a distance and not think about golf and get a good sleep. Just want to put potato chips in my stomach and watch Netflix.” Nasa Hataoka put up a fight on the final day to finish second at -22 after posting an 8-under 64 that included nine birdies. It was her second-consecutive 64 of the event. Mina Harigae and two-time LPGA Tour winner Celine Boutier finished in a tie for third at -18. Megan Khang, along with 2021 major champions Nelly Korda and Minjee Lee, tied for fifth at -17. Korda, who was among the 54-hole co-leaders with Ko, Hataoka and Boutier, finished her season averaging 4.90 birdies-or-better per round. It’s the best single-season rate for any player with 40 or more rounds played in the last 30 LPGA Tour seasons. “Honestly, it was definitely the Jin Young Ko show today. It was really cool to witness. Obviously, I wish I could have kind of given it a better run, but in all, I think I had a great year. I'm just going to kind of look back on that and enjoy it. But today, she just played amazing golf. There is not much you can do. Just sit back and watch honestly,” said Korda, who will tee it up in the PNC Championship this December with her father, Petr. Lexi Thompson finished the week at -16 in solo eighth. Lydia Ko, In Gee Chun and Gaby Lopez rounded out the top 10 in a tie for ninth at -15. JIN YOUNG KO WINS 2021 PLAYER OF THE YEAR She controlled her own fate and Jin Young Ko executed on Sunday at Tiburón Golf Club. The 26-year-old entered the week in Naples, Fla., needing to win the CME Group Tour Championship to secure Rolex Player of the Year honors, or to finish second and have Nelly Korda to finish 10th or worse. Ko took matters into her own hands, carding a bogey-free, 9-under 63 in the final round to secure the $1.5 million winner’s share and the title of Player of the Year. “It’s really a great honor to get Player of the Year,” said Ko. “Nelly [also] played really well, had a great year, even [won the] gold medal, win a major tournament and three other wins this year. I feel little sad to Nelly, but I was a little luckier than her, so I got the Player of the Year.” Ko becomes the first Republic of Korea native to win Player of the Year twice (2019, 2021). Four other Koreans have captured the award: Sei Young Kim (2020), Inbee Park (2013), So Yeon Ryu and Sung Hyun Park, who shared the award in 2017. “I didn’t know that, and I’m happy to get Player of the Year again,” Ko said. “It’s a great honor to twice get the Player of the Year. And especially since we have a lot of good players from Korea on this Tour.” AFTER ROCKETING UP LEADERBOARD, NASA HATAOKA FINISHES SECOND IN SEASON FINALE For most players, backing up one low round with another low round is a tall order, especially at a course like Tiburón Golf Club. But for Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings No. 8 Nasa Hataoka, the task seemed easy to accomplish on Sunday at the CME Group Tour Championship. The 22-year-old fired her second straight 8-under 64 after carding nine birdies and hitting 13 of 14 fairways, as well as 16 greens in the final round. It’s the 11th time Hataoka has shot 64 and her four-day total of 22-under par 266 is a new career-best for 72 holes, besting her previous benchmark by two shots. Though she ultimately finished runner-up to Jin Young Ko, Hataoka remains proud of her performance this week in Naples, Fla., and is looking forward to coming back better than ever in 2022, ready to compete for a record-breaking $86 million in official prize money on the LPGA Tour. “Today I was in the final pairing so there was a little bit of pressure with that,” she said. “But I feel like I played my own golf, so I'm really satisfied with that. I had one thing in my mind: routine. There was a few times where there was a lot of pressure, but I was able to think simply which helped me a lot today. Fortunately, there are 34 tournaments next year. That's a lot. Obviously, I can't play every tournament, but I want to play as many as I can, so I'll prep for that.” It’s been a banner year for Japanese golf and Hataoka has certainly contributed to that success, winning twice on the LPGA Tour at the Dana Open presented by Marathon and the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship presented by P&G. She also finished second in the U.S. Women’s Open at the Olympic Club and finished in a tie for ninth in the Bank of Hope LPGA Match-Play hosted by Shadow Creek. While she’s proud of her country’s golfing prowess throughout 2021 and is happy for her counterparts’ success, Hataoka feels like her play this year still left something to be desired and she’ll have a singular goal in the forefront of her mind as she looks forward to next season. “It was a big year for Japan. Not many players on the Tour are from Japan, but I think the Masters win, Hideki's win, was something very big for us. He lives close to where I live in Orlando, so we practice together. (His win) definitely meant something special for me. I would like to do something similar to that,” she said of Japan’s historic 2021. “This year I wasn't really playing how I wanted to until this June, but I was able to play in a playoff in a major tournament and I won twice. Overall, it wasn't a consistent year, but how I was able to win was good. “When I turned pro one of my biggest goals was to win a major in five years. This year was the fifth year, so I really wanted to win this year. That goal won't change. I still have strong feelings about winning majors.” LYDIA KO CAPTURES VARE TROPY WITH STELLAR FINISH As she walked away to hug her family and pack up for the drive back home to Orlando, Lydia Ko stopped and smiled when she realized something. “Eight under today to finish off my eighth year,” she said, referring to the 64 she shot on Sunday in the final round of the CME Group Tour Championship to finish tied for ninth at 15-under par, a fitting capstone of a season that earned Ko the Vare Trophy for low stroke average. The CME represented Ko’s 10th top-10 of 2021, which included one victory at the LOTTE Championship in Hawaii, marking one of the most consistent seasons she’s had in her career. The closing 64 also marked a new trend. It was the sixth time in 2021 that the 24-year-old New Zealander shot 65 or better in the final round. “You want to finish every tournament on a high. But this being the last (event of the year), there is no redemption. There is no next event,” Ko said. “So, yeah, I just wanted to play well. I think that's why, over this weekend, I got a little bit more frustrated over mistakes that maybe at times I would just normally go, ‘Oh, it's okay.’ But especially with the Vare Trophy being at the back of my mind, I think I just really wanted to top it off. To be able to have done that, there is no better way to finish this year.” The Vare was one of the few awards Ko had yet to capture. And it was one of the reasons she changed her plans late in the year. After competing in an LET event in the Middle East, she planned to take a break before the CME Group Tour Championship. Then she learned that she needed to post a few more rounds to be eligible to win the Vare, so she signed up for the Pelican Women’s Championship. That turned out to be a fortuitous move as Ko finished tied for second at Pelican, losing to a Nelly Korda birdie on the first playoff hole. “(The Vare Trophy) is really special because obviously it sums up the whole season,” Ko said after locking up the award in Naples. “All the other (awards and records) do, too. But at the end of the day golf is about how consistently well you can play and what kind of low scores you can shoot. The Vare Trophy obviously exemplifies that. I think I've only been close one year and I just missed out on the trophy. “I didn't even know that I was close this year until news came out and I realized a couple months ago. Last week (at the Pelican) wasn't really on my schedule. But it ended up being worth it because finishing tied second and to have won (the Vare) feels special. It just makes a good year even better.” For more on Lydia Ko winning the Vare Trophy on LPGA.com, click here: https://www.lpga.com/news/2021/lydia-ko-captures-vare-trophy-with-stellar-finish CME GROUP CARES CHALLENGE—SCORE 1 FOR ST. JUDE The CME Group Cares Challenge is a season-long charitable giving program turning aces into donations. CME Group donates $20,000 for each hole-in-one made on the LPGA Tour during the 2021 season with a minimum guaranteed donation of $500,000 to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, which leads the way in how the world understands, treats, and defeats childhood cancer and life-threatening diseases. The 2020 LPGA Tour season saw 13 aces from 13 different players, while the 2019 campaign had 32 total aces from 31 different competitors for a total of $620,000. That more than covered the average cost of $425,000 needed to treat a pediatric cancer patient. Through 29 tournaments in 2021, 19 holes-in-one have been made for a total of $380,000 donated to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital through the program. A total donation of $850,000 was made through CME Group, thanks in part from the Jimmy Buffett concert this past Wednesday.

Many Sullivan Bowlers Make Port Jervis Bowl New Home With six weeks into the 2021-22 bowlers at the former Kiamesha Lanes received the sudden announcement that the bowling center had been sold and the site would become the location of a grocery store. This sudden announcement directly effected three leagues with a total of 36 teams but a welcome surprise came forth when Brigette Willis, the owner of Port Jervis Bowl, met with the teams from the Kiamesha Lanes Monday Men's league offering them 12 lanes on Monday with the league starting on October 25. Almost half of the Monday Men's league agreed to switch their league to Port Jervis Bowl and teams from the Tuesday Night Mixed Firefighter league and the Friday Mixed league joined in to fill the 12-lane house with the newly created Monday Night Mixed League. Several bowlers formerly from Kiamesha also switched their bowling to the Colonial Lanes in Chester. Sullivan County bowling teams making up the new 12 team Monday Mixed league at Port Jervis bowl include Dominicks, L&B Tack, 3S & 1P, Parker Racing, Boys Night Out, The Fugawees, Bob The Builder, We God Balls, Catskill Cookies and there are three teams that have yet to name their sponsor. Good luck to the new league and best wishes to Brigette Willis, owner and manager of Port Jervis Bowl. Bowling Tip By Mike Luongo In order for everyone to enjoy the bowling experience, it's common courtesy to follow a few simple guidelines. Here are some of the unwritten rules of bowling etiquette. 1. Always wear bowling shoes....street shoes will ruin the approaches. 2. Keep nasty language and outbursts in your head. Nobody wants to hear it. 3. Keep any food or drinks away from the lanes. Spilling anything can damage the equipment and is dangerous for others. 4. Be ready to take your turn...don't make everyone wait. 5. Don't step over the foul line...it's against the rules and can result in you tracking oil all over the approach. 6. Don't use someone else's ball unless given permission. 7. Yield to the bowler to your right if you're both up at the same time. 8. Stand off the approach and out of the line of sight of the other bowler until that bowler finishes. 9. Do not intrude on the adjacent lanes in any way.....that includes throwing your ball onto the wrong lane, standing or playing on another lane's approach, or doing anything that infringes on the adjacent bowlers' lane.

Today’s announcement was made at the “Marvel: Universe of Super Heroes” exhibit at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry, which celebrates Marvel history with more than 300 artifacts including original comic book pages, sculptures, costumes and interactive displays. “MiLB’s new partnership with Marvel Entertainment brings together two storied brands who create memories that are passed down from generation to generation,” said Kurt Hunzeker, Major League Baseball’s Vice President of Minor League Business Operations. “The possibilities with this partnership are endless and we look forward to some incredibly creative content, merchandise, and promotions.” The new partnership will feature 96 MiLB teams participating in an event series called “Marvel’s Defenders of the Diamond” during the 2022 through 2024 baseball seasons. The deal was facilitated by AthLife, Inc, Marvel’s longtime sports representative. In each of the three years of the partnership, all 96 participating MiLB teams will host at least one Marvel Super Heroä themed game as part of the “Marvel’s Defenders of the Diamond” campaign, where teams will wear special edition Marvel Super Hero-branded jerseys on field during the game with other Marvel-themed activities and promotions taking place throughout the game. Fans may visit milb.com/marvel for the latest updates on the “Marvel’s Defenders of the Diamond” series. “Over the past few years, we have seen the fans of Minor League Baseball truly embrace Marvel-themed games, so having a nearly league-wide partnership will allow us to take creativity and storytelling to the next level,” said Mike Pasciullo, Marvel Entertainment’s Vice President, Product Development and Marketing – Brand, Franchise & Sports. “And it wouldn't be Marvel if we did not have a few major surprises to unveil along the way!” As part of the wide array of custom content it will create for the new initiative, Marvel will create a “Marvel’s Defenders of the Diamond” comic book for MiLB fans that will be distributed in participating MiLB ballparks throughout the partnership. Co-branded merchandise and other surprises will be unveiled in 2022. “The Syracuse Mets are all about affordable, family fun and the opportunity to partner up with Marvel for the next few years is a sure way to bring more fun to our fans at historic NBT Bank Stadium,” said Syracuse Mets General Manager Jason Smorol.

Syracuse Challenger Baseball to receive $1,100 donation as part of MiLB Homers That Help Campaign JJ Potrikus of Blink Fitness and the Syracuse Spartans matching MiLB’s $550 donation for a total of $1,100 SYRACUSE, NY – Syracuse Challenger Baseball is receiving a $1,100 donation thanks to Minor League Baseball’s Homers That Help campaign and JJ Potrikus of Blink Fitness and the Syracuse Spartans. As part of the Homers That Help campaign, each home run hit by the Syracuse Mets during the ten-game Triple-A Final Stretch led to a $50 donation to a local charity selected by each team. The Syracuse Mets selected Syracuse Challenger Baseball as the local Syracuse charity. The Mets hit 11 home runs for a total of $550. JJ Potrikus of Blink Fitness and the Syracuse Spartans matched the $550 donation, so Syracuse Challenger Baseball is receiving $1,100. “Having Major League Baseball take an interest in our community is so refreshing,” said Syracuse Mets General Manager Jason Smorol. “I am so happy that MLB is engaging with all the cities affiliated with them. I am looking forward to more of this over the coming years.” “Syracuse Challenger Baseball is immensely grateful to the Syracuse Mets and Major League Baseball for their selection of our program to be the beneficiary of funds from the “Homers that Help” community initiative,” Syracuse Challenger Baseball Executive Director Dom Cambareri said. “Their generous donation will continue to provide jerseys, equipment, trophies, and other benefits to our special needs children and adult ballplayers at no cost to them and their families.”

Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (72-52) vs. Rochester Red Wings (49-74) LHP JP Sears (6-0, 2.64 ERA) vs. RHP Steven Fuentes (0-4, 17.31 ERA) | Game 125 | Road Game 61 | Frontier Field | Rochester, NY | October 1, 2021 | First Pitch 6:05 p.m. | RECORD BREAKING SEASON: In the most unusual season in modern minor league baseball history, the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders have done their part to re-write the franchise record book, breaking seven team single game or season-long records despite the shortened schedule. Here is a list of the known team records broken: Longest 9 inning game 4:09, 5/6 @ Syracuse Most Errors, single game 6, 9/29 at Rochester (tied) Most No-Hitters thrown, single season 2 (7/21 vs Rochester & 8/19 at Worcester) Most Strikeouts, single game (offense) 18, 8/5 vs Worcester (tied) Most Stolen Bases, single game 7, 6/29 at Worcester (tied) Most Stolen Bases, season 145 Most Walks, single game (pitching) 16, 7/28 @ Syracuse (tied) SOUNDS LIKE A BROKEN RECORD: When Greg Allen stole second base in the sixth inning of game one of the doubleheader on September 25 with Syracuse, he recorded the 140th stolen base of the season for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, setting a new franchise record. In only 120 games, the team surpassed the previous record of 139 held by the 2000 SWB Red Barons, who needed 145 games to set the mark. Through 122 games, the RailRiders have stolen 145 bases in 184 attempts in the 2021 season (78.8% success). The pace of thievery has ticked up in September, with SWB currently 38-for-45 in steal attempts in 24 games during the month (1.58 steals/game). Andrew Velazquez leads the team with 29 stolen bases in 77 games, and Greg Allen (25) and Socrates Brito (23) have also recorded 20-or-more steals. With one more steal, Velazquez can become the first SWB player with 30 steals in a season since Brett Gardner stole 37 with the 2008 SWB Yankees. STOP HITTING ME!: A prevailing trend around professional baseball has been an uptick in hit batsmen this year, and the RailRiders hitters have not been immune. SWB batters have been plunked 96 times this season, the most of any Triple-A or Double-A team this year. Greg Allen leads the team with 18 HBP in 256 PA, while Rob Brantly and Derek Dietrich are tied for second with 14 each (in 257 and 160 PA, respectively). Max McDowell has been plunked 11 times in only 152 PA. An individual RailRiders batter has been hit by a pitch twice in a game six times this season, including Allen twice, a feat which ties a franchise record and had not been accomplished since 2016 (Cesar Puello, 4/27 vs Lehigh Valley). OFFENSIVE MARKS: At the end of the 2021 regular season, the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders had a combined team on-base percentage of .353, which is the best mark in franchise history. It narrowly beats out the .351 OBP posted by the 2019 RailRiders, despite the team’s batting average being 23-points lower in 2021. This is only the fourth time in the 31-year history of the franchise that SWB has posted a team OBP of greater than .345. HOMERS THAT HELP: As part of The Final StretchTM, Minor League Baseball has announced that it will be donating $50 for each home run hit by each club to a charity within that club’s local community. The RailRiders are hitting home runs to benefit the Wyoming Valley Challenger Baseball. Through five Final StretchTM games, the RailRiders have hit nine home runs for a total donation thus far of $450. The Triple-A team which hits the most home runs during the final stretch will receive a $5,000 bonus for their designated organization. CLOSE CALLS & BLOWOUTS: The RailRiders have played an extraordinary number of close games this season, with 59 of SWB’s 124 games being decided by one or two runs (47.6%). Scranton/Wilkes-Barre has performed approximately average in these close contests, going 15-16 (.484) in one-run games and 16-12 (.571) in two-run games. However, the RailRiders have also participated in their share of extreme blowout games, decided by eight-or-more runs. In 13 such contests, SWB is 11-2 (.846) on the season, and is part of the reason why the team is +139 in run differential this season, the third-best mark in Triple-A East. EYES ON THE FINAL STRETCHTM PRIZE...WHATEVER IT IS: Unlike all other classifications, Triple-A does not have playoffs this year, with instead every team playing 10 extra games in the Triple-A Final Stretch. The Triple-A Final Stretch is a 10-game, 2-week “postseason tournament” which has already seen SWB host Syracuse for five games and concludes with the current series at Rochester. The team with the best overall record over the 10-game period will be dubbed the Final Stretch Champion and receive a prize that MLB has unbelievably still not announced despite the fact that Triple-A’s Final Stretch ends on Sunday. Team and individual statistics achieved during the Triple-A Final Stretch will be counted toward regular season numbers, making The Final Stretch a Schrödinger’s Cat paradox where it is both the postseason and the regular season at the same time.

Payton and Vientos homer, but Mets drop series opener to Bisons, 7-3, on Wednesday night Mark Payton watches his home run ball fly out of the ballpark on Wednesday night. Payton had two hits, including this two-run homer for Syracuse (Herm Card). Syracuse, NY - The Syracuse Mets lost the series opener to the Buffalo Bisons, 7-3, on Wednesday night at NBT Bank Stadium in a game that featured five home runs. One of those homers came off Syracuse third baseman Mark Vientos’s bat in the first inning, making it three home runs in his first nine Triple-A games. With the loss, the Mets move to 3-3 in the Triple-A Final Stretch while the Bisons improve to 5-1. Buffalo (76-47) put up four runs in the top of the first inning. Otto Lopez hit a one-out single, and then Kevin Smith hit an RBI double to make it a 1-0 Bisons advantage. Gregory Polanco followed with a single, scoring Smith to extend the lead to 2-0. Tyler White then stepped in and hit a two-run homer to put Buffalo ahead 4-0. Syracuse (50-72-1) got on the board in the bottom of the first thanks to a Vientos solo home run. His third Triple-A home run made it 4-1 with Buffalo still in front. The Bisons added a run in the top of the third when Smith hit a leadoff solo home run to give Buffalo a four-run lead again, 5-1. The Mets cut the deficit in half in the bottom of the third. Martin Cervenka worked a leadoff walk. Mark Payton then blasted a two-run homer down the right-field line to bring Syracuse within two, 5-3 Bisons. Buffalo, however, hit yet another home run, this time in the top of the fifth. Lopez hit a one-out double. Kevin Smith then grounded out for the second out of the inning, but Polanco followed with a two-run homer to give Buffalo a 7-3 lead. A bright spot for the Mets was their bullpen, which tallied four scoreless innings. Robert Gsellman in his Major League rehab assignment pitched a scoreless sixth. Yeizo Campos followed with a scoreless seventh, and Akeem Bostick didn’t allow a run in the eighth nor the ninth. Syracuse and Buffalo return to NBT Bank Stadium on Thursday for game two of the five-game series. Mets minor league pitcher of the year, right-hander Adam Oller, will take the mound for Syracuse against Buffalo left-hander Nick Allgeyer. First pitch is set for 6:35 p.m.

Syracuse beats Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, 5-1, on Sunday afternoon for series victory Moosic, PA - The Syracuse Mets won their final road game of the 2021 season with a 5-1 victory over the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders on Sunday afternoon at PNC Field. After starting the season series 1-12 against the RailRiders, the Mets went 10-5 in their last 15 games against the RailRiders in 2021, including winning three of five games in this final series. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre (70-52) scored the game's first run in the bottom of the first inning. With one out, Oswaldo Cabrera hit a solo home run over the right-field wall to give the RailRiders a 1-0 lead. The homer was Cabrera’s third long ball in five Triple-A games with the RailRiders. That run was the only one allowed by Syracuse starting pitcher Jerad Eickhoff. The 31-year-old pitched five innings, allowed four hits, one run, and struck out six batters. Eickhoff was the winning pitcher and now has a 9-2 record on the mound for Syracuse in 2021. Syracuse (50-71-1) tied the game in the top of the second. Chance Sisco led off with a walk, and Cheslor Cuthbert singled to put runners at first and second base. Drew Jackson then bunted into a fielder’s choice where Sisco advanced to third and Jackson was safe at first, but Cuthbert was out at second base. Mason Williams followed with a groundout to second base, but Sisco scored from third base on the play to knot the game up, 1-1. The Mets took the lead in the third. With one out, Mark Vientos singled. Khalil Lee followed with a double to the wall in right-center field that scored Vientos to give the Mets a 2-1 advantage. Syracuse extended its edge in the fifth. With one out, Travis Blankenhorn singled, and Vientos walked, putting runners at first and second base. Two batters later, with two outs, Brandon Drury launched a three-run home run over the left-field wall to give Syracuse a four-run lead, 5-1. The Mets’ bullpen shut down the RailRiders. Jesús Reyes pitched three scoreless innings, and Yeizo Campos pitched a scoreless ninth as Syracuse beat Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, 5-1, to win the five-game series, three games to two. Syracuse is off on Monday and Tuesday before returning to the field at NBT Bank Stadium on Wednesday evening for the final series of the 2021 season. The Mets begin a five-game series against the Buffalo Bisons with first pitch on Wednesday scheduled for 6:35 p.m. in Syracuse.

Mets split Saturday doubleheader with RailRiders, Noah Syndergaard delivers another scoreless inning in rehab start Noah Syndergaard struck out two batters and pitched a scoreless inning in a Major League rehab assignment with Syracuse on Saturday (Todd Hiller). Moosic, PA - The Syracuse Mets split a Saturday doubleheader with the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders at PNC Field, losing the first game, 4-0, before scoring four runs in the sixth inning of game two en route to a 6-3 win. In game one, Noah Syndergaard made his second Major League rehab start for Syracuse. Syndergaard pitched another scoreless frame, allowing one hit with no walks while striking out two batters. The 29-year-old threw 12 pitches with 10 strikes. In Syndergaard’s two rehab starts, he’s delivered two scoreless innings, allowing just one hit with no walks. In game one, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre (70-51) put a pair of runs on the board in the bottom of the second. Greg Allen hit a one-out single, and then Armando Alvarez flied out. With Max Burt at the plate, Allen stole second base. Later in his at-bat, Burt hit a two-out single to move Allen to third base. Andrew Velazquez followed with a two-run double to put the RailRiders up, 2-0. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre added a run in the fourth when Oswaldo Cabrera hit a leadoff solo home run to extend the RailRiders lead to 3-0. In the bottom of the sixth, Ryan LaMarre worked a one-out walk. While Cabrera struck out, LaMarre swiped second base. That brought up Greg Allen, who hit an RBI single to make it a 4-0 RailRiders advantage, which was the final score. In game two, the RailRiders struck first again, this time in the third inning where Estevan Florial gave Scranton/Wilkes-Barre a 1-0 lead with a leadoff home run. Syracuse (49- 71-1) scored its first run of the day in the top of the fifth. Travis Blankenhorn hit a leadoff single. After Wilfredo Tovar struck out, Drew Jackson hit a go-ahead, two-run homer to give the Mets a 2-1 lead. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre tied the game up in the bottom of the fifth with Florial’s second home run of the game, a solo shot to make it a 2-2 game. Vance Worley got the start in game two for the Mets and delivered four innings. The right-hander allowed two runs on eight hits while walking one and striking out two. The Mets erupted for four runs in the top of the sixth. Mark Vientos hit a leadoff single, and then Khalil Lee walked. After David Thompson struck out, Travis Blankenhorn hit a one-run single to score Vientos and give Syracuse the lead back, 3-2. Tovar followed with an RBI single of his own to bring home Lee and make it 4-2 Mets. After Drew Jackson grounded out, Mason Williams hit a two-run single to extend the lead to four, 6-2. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre made things interesting, however, in the bottom of the seventh. Florial hit a leadoff single, and then with Cabrera at the plate, Florial stole second base. After Cabrera worked a walk, Chris Gittens popped out. Then Rob Brantly hit a one-out single to load the bases. LaMarre followed with a walk with the bases loaded to bring home Florial and bring the RailRiders within three, 6-3 Mets. Tom Hackimer then came out of the bullpen to replace Stephen Nogosek. Hackimer retired Socrates Brito via a line out and then struck out Trey Amburgey to end the game to secure Syracuse’s 6-3 victory. The Mets and RailRiders return to PNC Field on Sunday for the series finale. First pitch is set for 1:05 p.m. in the fifth game of the Triple-A Final Stretch.

Syracuse splits Friday night doubleheader with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Inbox Moosic, PA - The Syracuse Mets split a doubleheader with the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders on Friday night at PNC Field with the RailRider’s winning the resumption of Wednesday’s game, 5-3, before the Mets won the second game, 7-3. Khalil Lee and David Thompson both had three RBIs in the second game for the Mets. Game one was the resumption of Wednesday night’s game that was postponed because of an electrical issue that affected part of the lights at the stadium. On Wednesday, Syracuse (48-70-1) struck first with a run in the top of the first inning. After Albert Almora Jr. hit a leadoff single, Mark Vientos and Khalil Lee both flied out. With two outs, Brandon Drury doubled to right-center field to score Almora Jr. and give Syracuse a 1-0 lead. The Mets added to their advantage In the top of the second. Chase Sisco and Wilfredo Tovar led off with singles. Thompson then grounded out, but Sisco and Tovar moved to second and third base on the play. Drew Jackson followed with a groundout to third base, scoring Sisco and giving the Mets a 2-0 edge. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre (69-50) got on the board in the bottom of the second. Donny Sands and Oswaldo Cabrera led off with singles. After Ryan LaMarre grounded into a fielder’s choice, Greg Allen provided a one-run single to score Sands and bring Scranton/Wilkes-Barre within one, 2-1 Syracuse. The RailRiders came all the way back in the bottom of the fourth. With two outs, Cabera singled with nobody on base. Then, LaMarre hit a go-ahead, two-run home run to give Scranton/Wilkes-Barre a 3-2 lead. Allen followed with a single, and then with Rob Brantly at the plate, Allen stole second base and then third base. Brantly then hit an RBI double to extend the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre lead to two, 4-2. The lights on the left side of the ballpark went out once at the end of the fourth inning and again with two outs in the top of the fifth. The game was suspended until Friday night. On Friday, the game picked up with Mark Vientos at the plate with two outs in the top of the fifth inning. Vientos homered on the second pitch he saw to cut the deficit to one, 4-3 with the RailRiders still in front. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre regained its two-run edge in the seventh. With two outs, Oswald Peraza hit a solo home run, giving the RailRiders a 5-3 advantage, which was the final score. Game two was scoreless through the first three innings before Syracuse got on the board in the fourth. With two outs, Brandon Drury reached base on a throwing error by Scranton/Wilkes-Barre shortstop Oswald Peraza. Cheslor Cuthbert then worked a walk to put runners on first and second base. Thompson followed with a three-run home run to give the Mets a 3-0 lead. The Mets added another two-out run in the fifth. Martin Cervenka led off with a double and moved to third base on a Wilfredo Tovar groundout. After a strikeout, Vientos walked, putting runners on the corners. Lee then reached on an infield single, scoring Cervenka to make it a 4-0 ballgame. In the top of the sixth, Cuthbert led off with a solo home run, his team-leading 16th homer of the season, as the Mets took a 5-0 lead.

Two batters later, Lee crushed a two-run home run over the right-field wall to give the Mets a five-run advantage once again, 7-2.

BARNES AMONG UNBEATEN BOWLERS AT 2021 USBC SENIOR MASTERS LAS VEGAS - Turning 50 as a top-tier competitive bowler is anything but the first step toward days of leisure and endless relaxation. For Chris Barnes of Denton, Texas, becoming eligible for senior competition has meant balancing his time on the Professional Bowlers Association Tour with five months of events on the PBA50 Tour, along with all of life's off-lane responsibilities. This week, the 19-time PBA Tour champion is at Sam's Town Bowling Center for the final tournament of the PBA50 Tour season and finds himself among the 16 undefeated bowlers after the first day of match play at the United States Bowling Congress Senior Masters. BowlTV.com is providing wire-to-wire coverage of the USBC Senior Masters, including the stepladder finals, scheduled for Sunday at 1 p.m. Eastern. There also are 16 bowlers remaining in the Elimination Bracket, and all 32 surviving competitors will be back on the lanes at Sam's Town on Saturday at noon Eastern. Match play at the premier event for USBC members 50 and older will continue throughout the day Saturday, and the final five bowlers will advance to Sunday's championship round. The winner will take home a $20,000 top prize. As the season and Senior Masters wind down, Barnes also is in the running for PBA50 Player and Rookie of the Year. Oh, and the USBC Masters is one of the few missing pieces from his hall-of-fame resume, so winning the senior edition in his debut would be extremely special. The 51-year-old right-hander with one PBA50 Tour title this season qualified eighth for this week's 64-player double-elimination match-play bracket and picked up wins against Alvin Lou of El Cajon, California (694-564), and longtime friend John Burkett of Southlake, Texas (705-686). Of the unbeaten players, eight are competing in the Senior Masters for the first time and two - Barnes and top seed Tom Hess of Granger, Iowa - also are battling for the postseason awards. The group includes 2018 Senior Masters champion Chris Warren of Grants Pass, Oregon, 2018 runner-up Norm Duke of Clermont, Florida, and 2017 Super Senior Classic winner Ron Mohr of Las Vegas. Duke, Hess, Warren, Doug Kent of Newark, New York, and Parker Bohn III of Jackson, New Jersey, all have won the Masters, a major on the PBA Tour. Warren is one of three bowlers in history to win both. "In looking at my next match and farther into the bracket, I know it won't get any easier, so I'll need to keep getting sharper and sharper," said Barnes, who will face Dino Castillo of Highland Village, Texas, in the next round. "When you get some opportunities in matches, you need to take advantage, because you probably won't get very many of them. The deeper you go, the opportunities are even fewer." In his match against Burkett, Barnes was down 59 pins after the first game but was able to cut that deficit to eight pins after two games. He got into a position in the final game where hitting the pocket in the 10th frame would've been enough to advance without difficulty, but he left the 3-6-7-10 split on his first offering. "It was on the tighter lane, and I talked myself into a pretty bad shot," said Barnes, who owns three runner-up finishes at the Masters. "I didn't want to throw it hard. I ended up throwing it slow and right, and I got around it. Really, the only way I could go high, but I was fortunate to leave something I thought I could make. I made my customary move in that situation and aced the spare to shut him out." Barnes and Burkett recently practiced together on the lanes at Burkett's house. They bowled on the 2019 Senior Masters pattern and discussed strategy, some of which included how to effectively use urethane. Burkett ended up going that route in their match Friday at Sam's Town, and Barnes' own advice nearly earned him an early trip to the Elimination Bracket. The list of bowlers who did end up in the Elimination Bracket and will be back on the lanes Saturday includes a pair of two-time Senior Masters champions, Pete Weber of St. Ann, Missouri, and Walter Ray Williams Jr. of Oxford, Florida, standout rookie Brad Angelo of Lockport, New York, and defending champion Amleto Monacelli of Venezuela. Monacelli lost his first match to first-time participant Tim Mack of Indianapolis, 700-670, and Mack remained unbeaten with a victory against Michael Haggitt of Springfield, Ohio. Weber and Angelo are the other two players vying for this year's PBA50 Player of the Year award, and Angelo entered the Senior Masters as the front-runner for PBA50 Rookie of the Year. Barnes' practice session with Burkett was a small part of the work he has been putting in as he tries to figure out how to continue to be successful as he gets older. He also spent time on the lanes with Team USA assistant coach Mark Baker and then visited Storm's headquarters in Utah, where the staff helped him with equipment and drillings. "The mindset hasn't changed, just how much your body will allow changes," Barnes said. "I can't grind through as many games as I used to, so it has to be efficient and more focused. I've been out of whack, and that just has to do with getting older. You start cheating it a little bit, and suddenly, you're not throwing it very well. Mark Baker really helped me out, and I learned some things from the Storm team." The extra work is helping the pieces fall into place, or stay there, and Barnes is coming off a runner-up finish to Hess at the 2021 PBA50 Senior U.S. Open. The dedication is keeping him competitive on both tours, but it is moments like he experienced against Burkett keeping him motivated, even when his schedule now includes traveling to support his sons Ryan and Troy, who are at different colleges and involved in a variety of activities. Barnes is married to USBC Hall of Famer Lynda Barnes. "Moments like today are fun and the reason I'm still out here competing and putting in the work between events, even when my body hurts," Barnes said. "This really is the fun part - matches like this with the adrenaline flowing, the crowd cheering and a great energy and buzz in the building. That's what gets me up in the morning and out on the lanes." The 2021 Senior Masters started with 223 competitors vying for one of the 63 open spots in the bracket with Monacelli. The Super Senior Classic, won last weekend by Monacelli, and Senior Masters are taking place at the 56-lane Sam's Town Bowling Center together for the fifth time, a routine that began in 2016.

BOHN III WINS BACK-TO-BACK PBA50 TITLES AUGUST 10, 2021 JILL WINTERS Anderson, Indiana – To say that Parker Bohn III is on a hot streak would be an understatement. He has won two PBA Regional titles and back-to-back PBA50 Tour titles in just 10-days. His latest win came Tuesday at the PBA50 Dave Small’s Championship Lanes Open. The legendary lefty defeated Tom Hess, Norm Duke and Tom Adcock to earn his sixth career PBA50 title, but it was no easy task. He struck four times in his match against Hess and five times against Duke, but more importantly, remained clean in those matches. In each game, he only had one strike on the left lane. But when it came time to the championship match, Bohn delivered yet again. He started with the front five and cruised to a 233-157 victory over Adcock. “I have won 10 matches in a row in a stepladder format,” he said about his winning streak. “I’ve surpassed cloud nine. It’s just unbelievable.” He has won back-to-back titles and made three TV shows in a row before on the PBA Tour, but this has been unprecedented. Bohn and his family believe he is getting some extra help from above. They lost both his mother and his wife’s brother this year. “I think they are pulling all of the cards out of the deck that are bad ones for me and they are letting the good ones shine,” he said. He was confident that rolling 200 games against Hess and Duke would never get the job done. But a 204 and a 205 were enough because his opponents struggled with the demanding lane conditions. Bohn was shocked when Duke opened in back-to-back frames in the 6th and 7th frames, sticking while shooting at a 10-pin and chopping the 6-10. “I’m sitting on the bench thinking what is going on around here right now,” Bohn said about Duke’s open frames. “It was survival of the fittest. I was able to overcome because I filled frames.” “Every one of my PBA titles has been with a Brunswick ball,” Bohn said. “I can’t thank them enough for the player that I have become.” In the first match, No. 4 seed Hess had a better handle on the lanes than Lennie Boresch Jr. to pick up the 226-181 win. Hess advanced to face Bohn in the second match where both players held slight leads. Bohn’s double in the 8th and 9th frames resulted in a first pump. He got the 204-202 win. 2021 PBA50 DAVE SMALL’S CHAMPIONSHIP LANES OPEN FINAL STANDINGS: Parker Bohn III $7,500 Tom Adcock $4,000 Norm Duke $3,200 Tom Hess $2,500 Lennie Boresch Jr. $2,100 View the full standings at PBA50 Dave Small's Championship Lanes Open | PBA MATCH SCORES Match 1 – Hess def.

Later in the frame with second and third and two out Mangum lined a go-ahead two-run single to left that scored Luis Carpio and Rodriguez and put the Ponies up 4-2 capping off a three-run inning. In the eighth, the Ponies got some insurance as Wagner Lagrange hit a two-run single to score Ronny Mauricio and Rincon. Alex Sanabia (1-1) gets the win as he allowed two runs on five hits over five innings.

Fightins starter James McArthur (2-6) took the loss allowing three earned runs over five. The Ponies have split the first two games of the series and continue their homestand on Friday night. First pitch is at 7:05 PM with fireworks presented by Miller Auto Team immediately follow the game. POSTGAME NOTES: Lagrange finished 3-4 with 2 RBI…Rincon finished 3-4 with a run scored and an RBI…Reading LF Josh Stephen hit a solo shot in the second for his eighth home run of the year.

SCRANTON/WILKES-BARRE RAILRIDERS GAME REPORT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Lehigh Valley 9 Scranton/Wilkes-Barre 5 ALLENTOWN, Pa. (September 16, 2021) – The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders rallied to tie the game three times on Thursday night at Coca-Cola Park, but fell to the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, 9-5. Lehigh Valley jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning when a sacrifice fly from MLB rehabber Luke Williams scored Charlie Tilson. The IronPigs tacked on two more in the second on a Darick Hall home run and an Arquimedes Gamboa RBI single. The RailRiders struck back in the top of the third when Chris Gittens launched a three-run homer to right off Cristopher Sanchez to tie the game at 3-3. The blast was Gittens’ team-leading 13th home run of the season.

Vejigantes to return in 2022 Copa de la Diversión RailRiders to don Copa de la Diversión identity for select games in fifth season of MiLB initiative MOOSIC, PA (September 16, 2021) – The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders are pleased to announce that they will continue to participate in Minor League Baseball’s Copa de la Diversión during the 2022 season. The RailRiders will play on select dates as the “Vejigantes” next season to honor and recognize the growing Latino population in Northeastern Pennsylvania. 76 clubs across Minor League Baseball participated in Copa de la Diversión this season. Seven new teams will join in 2022 and two additional teams that didn’t participate this season will return next summer. Each of the 85 participating MiLB teams, covering 33 U.S. states, will transform its on-field brand to a culturally relevant Latino persona, representing an extension of the team’s and community’s identity. The Vejigante is a brightly-colored, folkloric masked character that is a blend of African, Spanish and Caribbean influences and a key figure in several annual celebrations. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre first adopted this identity in 2019 for Copa de la Diversión. 2022 Copa de la Diversión dates will be announced at a later time. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre continues a six-game series at Lehigh Valley this evening.
