Some Hints About The Final Games At The Stadiums

Published: September 17, 2008
The Yankees and the Mets have said little, if anything, about their plans to say farewell to their old stadiums.

One part of Sunday’s pregame ceremony will be the introduction of Yankees greats who will go to their former positions; those who have died will be represented by family members. One of Mickey Mantle’s sons, Danny or David, could be in center field, and one of Roger Maris’s sons could be in right.


After the Florida-Mets afternoon game on Sept. 28, the Mets plan to bring back 45 former players, including Tom Seaver and Mike Piazza, for a celebration called Shea Goodbye.
