Meet the Ponies event held by Binghamton prior to Season Opener
BINGHAMTON, N.Y. (WIVT/WBGH) – With the Binghamton Rumble Ponies heading on the road tomorrow to head to New Hampshire for their season opener on Friday, it was time once again for the community to be able to come out, show their support, and meet the ponies.
The Meet the Ponies event took place at the Holiday Inn in downtown Binghamton. It was a formal sit-down mixer, where fans were able to show up, meet the players and coaching staff, and also participate in a variety of different auctions. The team was able to speak with fans about their thoughts on the program, and the organization was able to discuss new things that will be happening around the club.
According to General Manager Richard Tylicki, it's not just a chance for fans to meet players and get the ins and outs of the organization, but it's also important to the club to be able to interact with the people after they have been away in the off-season and touch base with the fans.
The Rumble Ponies take on the New Hampshire Fisher Cats Friday at 6:35 to open their season with Jack Wenninger on the mound on the road in a 3-game series through Sunday. They then host Hartford in their home opener on April 8th, the start of a 6-game series against the Yard Goats.

Mets prospect Jett Williams leaves game after being hit in helmet by pitch
There was a scary moment involving Mets prospect Jett Williams in Friday night's game with the Binghamton Rumble Ponies. In the first inning of the Binghamton-Somerset game, Patriots right-hander Carlos Lagrange threw a 1-2 fastball up and in to Williams. However, the pitch, which SNY prospects writer Joe DeMayo clocked at 98 mph, ran in and hit Williams near the ear flap of his batting helmet. Williams collapsed to the ground before he sat up as the trainer checked him out. After a minute or two, Williams got back up and walked off under his own power and was taken out of the game. Advertisement There was no immediate update on Williams' condition and his status moving forward is undetermined. Williams, DeMayo's No. 2 Mets prospect, was having a solid first full season in Double-A. In 47 games, Williams is slashing .277/.381/.446 with four home runs, 12 doubles, 17 stolen bases and an OPS of .827. Entering Friday's game, Williams had a two-game hitting streak going and reached base at least once in the last 10 games.
