B-Mets: Jack Pranitis - R.I.P.
















Jack Pranitis, a fixture in both clubhouses at NYSEG Stadium for the past 15 years, died peacefully on January 27th after a lengthy & courageous battle with cancer. He and his wife Pat of 52 years adopted visiting and B-Mets teams as their own and touched many lives throughout professional baseball. His devotion to the Binghamton Mets extended to his “vacations” in Port St. Lucie, Florida for spring training where he assisted with the New York Mets minor league clubhouse operations.

Thanks for posting this. The entire organization meant a lot to my dad and his trips to PSL were one of the highlights of each year.
