Army Welcomes New York Mets for Exhibition

Army West Point baseball will renew its longstanding historic tradition by hosting the New York Mets in an exhibition game this March. The Black Knights are set to welcome the Mets to Doubleday Field at Johnson Stadium on Friday, March 31, at 3 p.m. The exhibition game will be New York's final tune up of spring training before opening its season on April 3. The contest will be Army's 22nd of the year, and will be the Cadets' last game before kicking off Patriot League play with a doubleheader the next day at Lafayette. Mets legends such as Dwight Gooden, Keith Hernandez and Darryl Strawberry played at West Point just a short time ago, and now manager Terry Collins and his 2017 squad will grace the historic playing surface at Doubleday Field.
