Here’s a random Mets cap from an interesting store in Manhattan. There are actually almost five Mets caps in this photo, but I’m referring to the one dead-center that’s the New York Giants style interlocking NY.
(Shannon here…well Ceetar it’s even MORE random. It’s a 1925 Giants cap!. I have one of those even though it is missing. Mre. MP moves things sometimes. If anyone has seen my 1908 Cubs jersey let me know.)
Do you know if the batter’s eye in center field was ever used as a scoreboard? I seem to remember the announcers sometimes refer to i as the “old scoreboard.”
No…that was only a batter’s eye…maybe they were referring to the main scoreboard in right field as the “old scoreboard”…the message part of it was turned into a giant ad in the late 80s I believe and Diamond Vision took over as the main message board.
Thanks!
