Mets Honor Willie Mays, Jerry Grote With Uniform Patches 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sun Jun 30, 2024 4:42 pm

The Mets wore uniform patches Saturday honoring Willie Mays and Jerry Grote that will remain on all their jerseys for the rest of the season.

A circular patch with Mays\' No. 24 was added to the left sleeve of the City Connect tops New York wore for its home game against the Houston Astros. Mays, who died on June 18, concluded his Hall of Fame career with the Mets from 1972-73 and had his number retired by the club on Old Timers\' Day two years ago.
