    The Pittsfield Mets were a minor league baseball based in Pittsfield, Massachusetts and played their home games Wahconah Park. The team previously played as the Little Falls Mets from Little Falls, New York before an investment group organized by Michael T. Casey relocated the team to Pittsfield. The team played in the New York–Penn League, and were affiliated with the New York Mets from 1989 to 2000. In 2001 the team became the Pittsfield Astros when they began their affiliation with the Houston Astros. After the 2001 season, the club was relocated to Troy, New York and became the Tri-City ValleyCats.
