EVENT DETAILS:  Little League Night is a FUN night where Little Leagues from all over Onondaga and Oswego Country get to walk in a parade around NBT Stadium while being announced by our friend and Mets GM Jason Smorol.  The kids love the opportunity to walk with their friends from the league around the stadium.  After the parade, the Mets will take on the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs and fireworks happen after the game!
