PNC Field in Moosic, PA is home to the New York Yankees AAA affiliate minor league baseball team, the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Railriders. While it's only the 2nd AAA minor league ballpark I've been to, it ranks up there with my prior AAA ballpark experience at Coca Cola Park in Allentown in terms of quality. The location of the ballpark on Montage Mountain is perfect for a nice summer breeze. There is ample parking ($8 charge) in the lots adjacent to the stadium, but arrive early as the roads leading to the stadium do get pretty backed up, with the local Moosic police department directing traffic off the main road before and after games. There was a nice mix of Yankees and Mets fans in attendance for a match up against the Syracuse Mets (and a lone Red Sox fan which seemed a bit lost/out of place...lol). PNC Field is modern and welcoming, with nice open concourse areas, plenty of concession stands, multiple kids play areas, a picnic table area in left field, and some lawn seating beyond the outfield. Both the team store and concession stands were overpriced, but expectedly in-line with prices found at other minor league ballparks. Some concession stands do offer regionally local food, including Philadelphia area favorite Chickies & Pete's, and their crab fries. A few concession stands had no lines, while others like the Electric City Grill seemed understaffed, with extremely slow-moving lines. The team store I felt was a bit small and cramped, with limited shirt selection and lack of any budget-friendly merchandise. Staff I encountered throughout the stadium was friendly and engaging, and the promotional team did a great job keeping fans entertained between innings. Overall, I'd rate PNC Field a 4.5/5 minor league ballpark experience, and I could see myself catching multiple games a year if I lived locally. I'd recommend a visit to PNC Field if you're in the Scranton area and wanting to take in a baseball game. read more

PNC field is located in the outskirts of Scranton, PA. it is the New York Yankees AAA farm team. I went with my friend and were treated to a barbecue in the "porch" section of the stadium. Food is always excellent when it's free, but it was. The weather cleared up and we got to see the game. The stadium seems pretty clean Considering the crowd. Even so with the bathrooms. Maybe you should come and take your kids since your cost is going to be much cheaper than a major league game. Ticket prices average $20 apiece for adults, less for children and maybe free for certain kids under age. A typical baseball atmosphere, quite enjoyable. We got free parking, but there is a $5 fee to park. My friend is a member of a charity and we got perks. read more

Celebrated my 69th Birthday here on July 9th, with a matinee against Buffalo. I bought a luxury box ticket for maximum comfort. Spent time before the game walking around downstairs and enjoying the sites of a AAA ballpark. I stopped for a large pizza slice and beer. The beer was fine, nice and cold. The pizza slice just might be the worst pizza I've ever had. It was that bad. I went upstairs to the luxury box area and enjoyed the AC on a warm, muggy day. I had another beer along with 2 hot dogs, which were on a promo sale for $2. The hot dogs were better than the pizza but not by as much as I would have liked. However, I truly enjoyed the rest of the day. The ballpark is beautiful. The several beers I had were cold and refreshing. The sightlines were terrific from my seat. The game was fun to watch. The entire ballpark was very well maintained. Who knows, if the RailRiders are playing next July 9th, on my 70th Birthday, I just might be convinced to come back. But I'll eat somewhere else before the game. read more

I came up to the ballpark for food, baseball merchandise and fun Two of the three I had but baseball merchandise I wanted they did not have. I wanted a baseball cube (to hold a ball I got before my dad passed in '09) and a Railriders cardigan style sweatshirt both you did not have. The people who worked there had no clue about the items I wanted didn't know where or if you had anything. So I am glad I only go there about once every year or two years pending on my mood and your people soured my mood severly. read more

PNC Field - Go Red Wings!! - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Moosic, Pennsylvania

Nice stadium situated in the mountains with some fantastic natural rock in the outfield. We had suite tickets but I always want to get the lay of the land. The stadium has plenty of places to post up and stand while grabbing a drink or some crabby fries. The suite level is exactly what you'd expect. The seating bowl is kind of limited on food options for a AAA stadium. There really doesn't seem to be a stand out food item, it's just basic stadium food which was disappointing. Yes, we did eat in the suite, but I'm always looking for something new. They do have Wallenpaupuck brewing in the stadium and you can get a flight of 4 of their brews for $15 down the third base line. The DIPA isn't overbearing and is good. There is also a large team store compared to other AAA teams. One great thing is that it is located one exit away from the airport so there are plenty of places to stay. Our hotel was literally on top of the hill from the stadium in centerfield (no you can't walk up to it). Parking is $7 which is normal. Prices inside for food and drink were also what you'd expect. It is a great place to see a game and that is what really matters and I'm definitely not a Yankees fan but I do enjoy watching guys come up through the ranks. read more

Came to PNC Field for the Scranton / Wilkes-Barre Railriders baseball game. AAA Yankees team plays here. PNC Field was great! Options to get here via car or Electric City Trolley to the game (to/fro). When I came, there were giant bobble head figures of Reggie Jackson, Roger Clemens and Andy Ashby! Take your pictures and selfies with them (while they are there).. Very cool! The team store to your left where you can purchase souvenirs - caps, t-shirts, socks and more! The game was great - saw the RailRiders play against the Syracuse Chiefs. Food options at the ballpark were good - walk around the park. Look for any special deals - there was a special deal souvenir bucket chicken fingers and fries with drink for $15. Great value!  Make sure to go around to check out the food options. Also had nachos, bbq wings and ice cream! Like the major leagues, souvenir helmets for ice cream which are a tad smaller. Great time to spend and watch minor leagues with friends and hang out! Will definitely come back again and take the trolley to the game. The trolley will wait 15 minutes after the game so don't miss the it if you took it here. It definitely makes it easier than being stuck in traffic going in and out of the parking lot. read more

As a big baseball family that we are, we go to A LOT of different Major and Minor league stadiums. With nothing going on this past Saturday and as I'm looking up who's playing where; we decided to make the 2 hour drive to PNC Field from Northern NJ. Stadium was very nice and clean. I will admit that for was a little more expensive than I was expecting for a minor league game but the food was very good, so I didn't mind that. Field itself was one of the better ones we've been to. Ticket prices were priced right being only a few rows from the field. Only negative was that once the game was over, they couldn't rush you out fast enough. Myself, my son and his friend were picking out a hat and logo ball as we collect baseballs from every stadium and my wife was waiting in the concourse with all the hoodies. They made her leave because they had to lock the gates. Meanwhile, they wouldn't let her go to the bathroom. Really? Thank God there was a Starbucks down the street. After supporting a lower level team, you usually don't get that kind of a rush to get people to leave. Hence the loss of a star. With a 2 hour drive home, that makes a big difference. read more

Man oh, man, turn back the pages. It had been a long time since I was up on the mountain for a minor league baseball game in Moosic. A lot had transpired since the original crap hole Lackawanna County Stadium was built here in '89 or so to look like a mini-Veterans Stadium. That was truly the only place I have ever seen that looked dated when it was new. There's retro and there's a dump and that place was a dump. (Go to digitalballparks.com and search the old pictures) Astroturf along with way too much seating capacity and a super steep pitch for the seats in the 2nd deck made it a bad place to see a game. Thankfully, that place got demolished in 2013 and you have PNC Field here today which is a million times better. (This is for the game we saw only this past Sunday) Good: Super easy to get to off of 81 and tons of parking. I don't know the real attendance for the game (not the one where they include season/corporate tickets that were pre-paid/sold but may or may not have actually been at that game) but I'm guessing maybe 2,500, tops. I got 2nd row seats behind the plate the day before the game without issue and there were multiple unoccupied sections around the park. The mandatory cashless thing is a ludicrious knee jerk reaction that I've haven't seen at any other minor league park I've been to this year but overall it works. You can buy your parking in advance but when you get to the lot it's not scanned. They just look at your phone and let you through. At the gates their scanners work decent enough just make sure that for a day game your phone's screen brightness is turned all the way up or else the QR code from Ticketmaster won't scan properly the first six times. Meh: The food is the food. Very pricey like you would expect at a professional sports game and overall the selection is weak. You could go see the IronPigs play in Allentown and experience all of the food offerings at Coca-Cola Park but that is the exception not the rule. Here it's pretty much pretzels, roller dogs and things like that. Blah. Bad: Their insane bag and wanding policy. Nowhere else on planet earth is this done for a minor league baseball game unless that game is taking place in Attica. Security guy A in line one is telling women with wristlets that it's too big and to take it back to the car yet guy B in the line next door is letting full sized purses by and you can take in multiple diaper bags as big as full size rolling luggage and that's ok. Really, really stupid and highly arbitrary. The best part is that before they tell you to take the "bag" back to your car you get wanded and then you can come back to the same line with the same person and now it's time to get it again. Truly, why? The game itself was alright with Scranton losing and their manager attempting to use a pitcher not on their roster and/or lineup card exchange at the start of the game. Fun times. Yes indeed it was good time watching a decently played game while some jughead a section over yelled at the top of his lungs "swing" at nearly every pitch to a Syracuse hitter for the entire game and another was doing the Ric Flair "Woooooooooo" all game long which is loud as hell when the stadium is that empty. Great. Where was security for that crap? Overall it was fun, the price was fair and I'm glad we went. Is there a need to come back? Probably not as there are better minor league experiences to be had in the surrounding tri-state area. read more

PNC Field - Mets vs Yankees - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Moosic, Pennsylvania

This year we discovered RailRiders baseball. We love baseball & this ballpark is so close that we can make an afternoon or evening game easily. Food offerings are OK, but I honestly haven't tried them all. Ladies: they restrict the size of handbag you can bring in the stadium. None of my purses qualify so I gave up & ordered a clear, plastic purse from Amazon. Oh, one more suggestion, the seats are hard so I bring a stadium cushion. Go RailRiders! read more

Very Nice. The ballgame was so much fun. I enjoyed watching the teams play and national anthem before the game. I loved the scenery too.

I'm a fan of minor league baseball, but this place is unimpressive for a AAA ballpark. You'll find more interesting amenities at lower levels in the same Yankees organization. Food is really basic here. You've got your standard hot dogs, burgers, fries, soft serve in a souvenir helmet. Nothing special about the stadium design, no neat tie-ins. The mascot is entirely unrelated to the team name, standard generic mascot. The only plus was that we got into the parking lot without the stated $5 charge, probably because they figured it was going to be a rainout so why bother. That would have been insult on injury. I still want to get back here to see a game, but from my extended time walking the stadium until the game was called, I think it'll be one and done. The only true draw here is the off chance someone you know is rehabbing. read more

Easy to find off the interstate, near plenty of gas food etc. Their is plenty of parking ( are the ever going to pave the parking lot?) All the staff was friendly and helpful. Plenty of distractions for the little kids. Nice playing field, overall clean facility - GO RAILRIDERS! Affordable ticket and food prices make for a fun evening of baseball. read more

Recently attended a game here and had a very enjoyable time. The stadium is easy to get to, parking is well-organized, and all members of the staff were very helpful and hospitable. The park itself is laid out nicely and does have that comfortable "hometown" feel. Admittedly though, I was a bit surprised by the lack of locations where you can get actual food... as opposed to just snack items. That said, I would totally come back here for more games in the future; besides, as a Yankees fan, I can totally be a fan of the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders. :) TL;DR Enjoyable day at the park. Great staff. Will certainly visit again. Recommended visit. read more

Spacious, beautiful, family friendly and a really great atmosphere! At the moment of this review, I have attended a baseball game in 14 MLB stadiums and 3 minor league stadiums and this has now become one of my favorite baseball stadiums ever! Everything about this stadium really made the experience we had here great, from the friendly nature of the employees to the great food selection! We came here for the 1st time this past weekend for a bobblehead/arm giveaway and weren't sure what to expect from this experience. First off, there is a huge parking lot for the stadium and parking was only $2 so that's a major plus for anyone fearing parking costs. Second, the employees were so friendly every which way, from the ticket scanners, to the ballpark photographers and concession workers. We were always greeted with smiles and they were helpful when we asked questions. Did I mention the great food selection?! There was so much to choose from our heads were spinning. There were burgers, fries, (different flavored) chicken fingers, hot dogs with different toppings, BBQ food and multiple flavors of soft serve ice cream! And most of the food and desserts were relatively cheap compared to many stadiums we had been to! At the end of the night, we ordered soft serve ice cream on a cone for $4.50, however the ice cream was swirled about 7 inches high! As for families, there were plenty of them and PNC Field accommodates them nicely with the kid-friendly areas, such as the bounce houses and lawn seating area where they can run around. Speaking of the lawn seating, it was our first time ever watching a game from the lawn and it was so relaxing being able to just sit there, spread out and not feel cramped up in a seat. Just remember to bring a towel with you! Although this stadium is a bit bigger than most minor league stadiums, it is still much smaller than an MLB stadium, so there were great views to be had everywhere. There were also small things here and there that we loved, such as the wide bar seat ledges facing the field where you can eat your food and watch the action. The location of the stadium was also interesting as it felt like they had carved out a piece of the forest and planted the stadium right in the middle of it as the backdrop in the outfield was a giant rock wall. To reiterate, we absolutely loved everything about this stadium and would definitely come back to see a minor game here again! read more

The stadium itself is well maintained. Easy to navigate, lots of (expensive) food and drink choices, but it's expected. However, every staff member we talked to was so rude. From ticketing, so customer service, to security. They need help. read more

I've seen two games now at the newly renovated PNC field, one sitting in the seats along the first base line and one from a luxury box. I have to say that the new stadium is great. It is much more fan oriented than the old stadium and has the feel of a hometown ball park. One of the most exciting aspects of the renovation is the ability to walk along the wall in the outfield and the grassy hill behind the fence. It reminds me of the Little League World Series field in Williamsport, PA. The food selection is lacking, but they do have local pizza from Ravellos in Old Forge. The prices are a little higher than I would like to see, but it is a baseball stadium and that is typically an easy way to make more money. The luxury box was nice, but I feel like they are a little too deep and make watching the game hard unless you're right against the glass or sitting in the seats outside the box. The boxes also give you access to a "server" who checks in every few innings to get drink or food orders. Prices are high here too but again, the markup is to be expected. read more

Had an excellent experience at the newly renovated PNC Field this weekend. Everything from the entrance to the concourse to the hallways were pristine and the staff was extra friendly and welcoming. Concession prices were consistent with other minor league stadiums I've been to. I'd like to see them expand the food options slightly, but that's really my only gripe. A night at PNC Field is now affordable and fun. Visit soon and review for yourself! Edit: Another feature that might be helpful is having the radio feed available in the restrooms so you know what's going on if you need to step out for a few pitches. read more

PNC Field - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Moosic, Pennsylvania

I've been attending minor league baseball games since the heyday of the Red Barons, through the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees, and now with the current RailRiders. During my high school years I would frequently attend the games with a friend of mine. We liked to randomly pick out a player on the opposing team and heckle him throughout the innings. We would hurl insults like "You suck!" or "What are you doing in Northeastern Pennsylvania? We know how to throw a baseball here!" Our goal was to get under the player's skin until he yelled back at us. It was all in good fun and rooting for the home team made us feel like true sports fans. I've gone to the PNC Field a few times this year and sat in the luxury boxes. I'm mainly there to take advantage of the alcohol and food: pizza, chicken wings, popcorn - anything that's overly fatty and salty and generally bad for you. Snacks and beer just taste better when you're at a ball game. read more

PNC Field - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Moosic, Pennsylvania

PNC Field in Moosic Pennsylvania is home to the Yankees AAA minor-league team. I am a diehard New York Mets fan unfortunately the Mets minor-league team is located in Las Vegas so when I'm in Pennsylvania for work I try to catch a game here because after all baseball is still baseball. The stadium and field itself is recently been renovated and they did a really good job on it. The staff here is very friendly and they will assist you in anyway that you need unfortunately I do not know the prices of the food or the drinks that they offer here because I usually get drinks at a restaurant not far from the stadium. There is a restaurant on montage Mountain that actually has outdoor seating where you can sit and look over the entire stadium. It's very hard to see the games from the restaurant but you can still make out what players wearing a white shirt and what players wearing a darker shirt. Parking here is free Overall to Cool field. If you do have little kids I recommend bringing them here for a game it's cheap you get good seats and there's free parking read more

I love PNC Field, I've been coming to watch the baseball team play since they were the red barons, and their new stadium is amazing. The open view of the field no matter where you are standing has been at success for all baseball fields that have adopted this look. They have field seating which is great for anyone with kids who don't like to sit down, and it extra great for when they do bark at the park night. The food prices are reasonable to most other stadiums, if you go on a promotion night like dollar hotdog night you can definitely eat for cheap. However beer is going to be the same as it going to any concert or baseball game be prepared to pay unless once again you're going on a promotional night like thirsty Thursday. You'll pay a couple dollars for parking but nothing too bad. It's a great place to bring the kids a nice warm summer night. read more

It was a great experience. The vendors, and cashiers were nice, and professional. I sat behind home plate, and the view was excellent. A tremendously fan-friendly atmosphere. I tried a Philly cheesesteak. It was delicious! Not to be gross, I had to clean off a disgustingly dirty toilet seat myself by way of a few paper towels, the foam soap, and water. A fan should not have to do that. Considering that, I cannot wait to go back! read more

This past Saturday was my first time at the newly built PNC Field. To start, parking is still free and the lot is pretty massive. In my opinion, they've built the stadium to look like very similar to Yankee Stadium (in the interior that is). They have similar concrete breezeways, concessions and the restrooms all look very similar to Yankee Stadium. The field itself is very nice and the area that surrounds it is basically undeveloped, so there are just many trees surrounding it. It's very peaceful and serene. There's a great hitter's backdrop here. Derek Jeter was also playing (rehabbing) in the game we went to, so that was an added bonus. The stadium workers are very friendly and there seemed to be some sort of an event in between every inning. The knock I have on this place is -- the food. I was very disappointed to find out there is no restaurant/bar at the new PNC Field (there was one at the old stadium). When I was standing in line, a lady told me that the pizza (Revello's sp?) was very good. It was actually right by our seats so we ordered some squares (it's the NEPA way of ordering slices). When I bit into the pizza, I immediately thought the lady had to have been messing with me because the pizza was terrible. It reminded me of Ellios and I don't mean that as a compliment. My wife and I ended up splitting a chicken fingers and fries dinner - just OK. I will give them props for having $4 draft beers...and for having Yuengling on tap. This isn't a place that I come to often, but I really think it's great for the area. It's a much cheaper and convenient alternative for people in the area than having to drive to either the Bronx or Philly to catch some baseball action. The quality of play is also pretty nice (AAA - one level below the big leagues). And, you can also get pretty lucky and see some stars rehabbing with the team. read more

Off the top, let me say that I love baseball - especially Yankee baseball. We had a beautiful Saturday night in June when we were in the Scranton/Wilkes Barre area visiting our daughter in grad school. The AAA Yankee team, Railriders, who play out of PNC Field were home playing the Red Sox AAA team. My Red Sox loving husband and daughter, and I, agreed we had to get to the game. We went online to purchase our tickets. The only seats available were $11 bleacher seats. The thought of bleacher seats never make me happy but we went with it. We got to the stadium easily and parking was convenient to the field. The field is much smaller then a major league stadium but that is to be expected. PNC Park is modern, well maintained and very fan friendly. The staff, whether behind a food concession stand or an usher were all helpful and easy to talk with. We realized that although the game is sold out, half the seats were empty (corporate purchased seats maybe?). We quickly sat in 3 seats behind first base with a great view of the game and easy access to concession stands. The fans around us were very nice and as usual, people find our split marriage of Yankees/Red Sox surprising. The concessions at the game are much cheaper then the major league stadiums. While I stayed with a craft beer for $7, I could have gotten a bud or bud light for $4. The food was decent for ball park food with lots of the usual options. The garlic and truffle fries were very good. I am sorry to say the Railriders lost to the Pawtucket Red Soxx. Aside from that fact, it was a really enjoyable night. Go Railriders! read more

What a fantastic time we had!!!! First time visit to recent Bat Day. I was surprised that adults and children entering the park were given a bat. They even opened the gates early for the crowd that was gathering out front. Once inside the refurbished park looked fantastic. Everyone was so kind and friendly. Our seats in section 17, row 11, were perfect. We were on the cusp of sun and shade which was great for my young ones on a hot day. Concession prices were comparable to other minor league parks. We were lucky enough to catch a foul ball and a free t-shirt shot from the Gatling gun. My only disappointment is the play area in left center field. We paid $5 per child to play "all" game. But they shut down and collapsed everything during the 5th inning? Why, we were told we could come back during entire game? But otherwise it was a great day, with lots of fun. For us a short 2 hour ride from New York via I-84. Recommend to all. We plan on going back in August. read more
