2017 Mets Minor League Review: Binghamton Rumble Ponies

Season Record: 85-54 (Eastern League Eastern Division, 2nd Place)

Not only did new manager Luis Rojas have big shoes to fill, as his predecessor, Pedro Lopez, was one of the most winning managers in Binghamton baseball history, but with the club having been rebranded from the Binghamton Mets to the Binghamton Rumble Ponies, it was his duty to start things off on the right foot. Rojas did that and more, guiding the Ponies to 85-54 record, good for a playoff berth.

Binghamton won the first game against Trenton, but lost the next three, getting knocked out of the Eastern League playoffs. Game three stands out in particular, as Yankees top pitching prospect Justus Sheffield and farmhand Taylor Widener combined to no-hit the Rumble Ponies, the first time since 2013 that Binghamton was no-hit and the first time that a no-hitter was thrown in the Eastern League playoffs since Bill Pulsipher no-hit Harrisburg in Game 2 of the Eastern League Championship Series in September 1994.
