On Sunday night, it was announced that the Seattle Mariners will take on the New York Mets in the 2025 version of the Little League Classic in Williamsport, Penn.
One of baseball's biggest days on the calendar, it's a day where the major leagues meets the little leagues for fun, camaraderie and memories. The 2024 version between the New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers was a great success for everyone involved.
For the M's, this will represent multiple great things. First, it will give them another nationally-televised game and a chance for national exposure as a brand. Second, it will allow the nation to see what we already know: That guys like JP Crawford and Victor Robles and Julio Rodriguez and Randy Arozarena have great personalities that deserve to be shown off. And third, it will help break up the monotony of the calendar and could help the M's stay invigorated for what we hope is a playoff push in 2025.
Unfortunately though, you won't be able to watch the signature event in person. There are no tickets sold to the general public, according to Little League's website:
Unfortunately, tickets to the MLB Little League® Classic are unavailable to the general public, due to the very small size of the stadium and providing seats for all of our World Series teams, families, and volunteers. Major League Baseball typically holds a ticket lottery for residents of Lycoming County (which is the home of Williamsport, Pennsylvania), for the limited amount of tickets to distribute to residents in our area. More information on that lottery can be found at MLB.com/LLClassic.
The game is played at Historic Bowman Field, which is a minor league stadium that lacks the capacity of major league facilities. And as stated above, the limited seats are taken up by all the 20 Little League teams, their families and event volunteers.
The game will be played on Aug 17., 2025 and will be shown on ESPN.
