Mets Retire Darryl Strawberry\'s No. 18 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sun Jun 2, 2024 2:10 pm

Darryl Strawberry stood on the Citi Field grass as his No. 18 was being retired and addressed the New York Mets fans he had jilted 34 years earlier.

\"I mean this from the bottom of my heart, I\'m so sorry for ever leaving you guys,\" Strawberry told the crowd of 30,600, his voice slowing. \"I\'m truly, deeply sorry that I ever left you guys. I never played baseball in front of fans greater than you guys.\"
