If you want to get a little bit further off the beaten path then try Atlantic League baseball with the Long Island Ducks, currently coached by former Major Leaguer, Gary Carter.  You may remember Mr. Carter from game six of the 1986 World Series, where his two-out, two-strike base hit sparked the New York Mets three-run rally in the bottom of the 10th inning and his two home runs and nine RBI’s in the series helped the Mets to bring home their second championship.

Amazingly, the best seats in the house are just $11.00!  While it ain’t the Bronx Bombers or the Amazin’ Mets it sure is easy on the wallet and just as fun (if not more).  Tickets are on sale now for the entire season which runs until September 20th.  Be sure to hurry to get the best seats because the Ducks have one of the best attendance records in all of minor league baseball!  Entering their 10th Anniversary Season, the Ducks own a nine-year average attendance of 6,094 (101.5% of capacity) and have led all independent leagues in attendance in each season of their existence.
