Syracuse Mets' Latino Night: 'Like being back in the Dominican Republic' (photos)
Briefly

Syracuse Mets held a Latino Night at NBT Bank Stadium, part of the Copa de la Diversión initiative in Minor League Baseball. The event included Latin music, traditional foods, and activities that fostered cultural exchange. Fans enjoyed local delicacies and danced, while conga drummers performed. Musicians from the community contributed to the festive environment, and local members of the Latino community participated by throwing out first pitches. The game's representation was highlighted by local players engaging with traditional music and anthems.
"Tonight we're going to play some music for the players, the players know. When they hear it, they can hear the drums and all that, because we're gonna be close to them."
"I think the music and also watching the game, too, is super cool. I love baseball. I love seeing (the representation in baseball), especially Puerto Rican and Venezuelan representation."
