Scranton/Wilkes-Barre has played at PNC Field, formerly Lackawanna County Stadium, since 1989.

The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders Minor League Baseball team has played in the Scranton–Wilkes-Barre metropolitan area, for 35 years since being established in 1989 as members of the International League (IL). The team has played 4,989 regular-season games and compiled a win–loss record of 2,658–2,331 (.533). The RailRiders' best regular-season record occurred in 2016 when they finished 91–53 (.636). Conversely, their lowest record was 62–80 (.437), which the team recorded in 1993 and 1994.

Since 1989, the RailRiders have been one of the successful teams in the International League, compiling a 2,658–2,331 record through the 2024 season.
