Binghamton Rumble Ponies

"This is a win for Binghamton,” Mayor Rich David said.

According to the team, Major League Baseball will not provide players for affiliated teams for the 2020 season.

"Our staff continues to work towards a solution for reopening the ballpark this summer."

“This is a very unfortunate casualty of the COVID-19 virus."

The stretch covers 17 games.

Devils hockey season is suspended, Rumble Ponies baseball will have a delayed start.

Mayors across the country announced a task force to save Minor League Baseball in cities like Binghamton last year.

“I’ve heard from people in Binghamton, elected officials and citizens, and they don’t like this and that’s why we want to have our meeting. Try to change it.”

The plan by Major League Baseball would reportedly eliminate over a quarter of minor league teams. That includes the Binghamton Rumble Ponies.
