I think at one point there were Mets affiliates in Pittsfield MA and
Plattsburgh NY. There was even an Expos affiliate in the
Montpelier/Barre area, (not to be confused with the minor league
then-Vermont Expos)--though the Pittsfield AM staton in question
(WBEC? WBRK?) may have had the minor league Pitts. Mets instead of the
National League Mets.
I looked up a site about past radio homes for the Expos and found that
they once had
affiliates in Barre VT (WSNO), Berlin NH (WBRL), and Littleton NH
(WLTN) as well as
WEAV Plattsburgh NY etc

At one point I believe Yankees games could be heard in the Lake
Sunapee/Upper Valley region of NH (perhaps on the 100.5) and just a
few years ago the 94.5 in Rutland VT, WDVT,
had Yankees baseball. A Wikipedia page listing Yankees radio network
stations does list WDVT but a yr or two ago I noticed the game wasn't
on that station.
