New York Mets honor late legends Willie Mays and Jerry Grote with uniform patches bearing their numbers.

The New York Mets are paying tribute to late legends Willie Mays and Jerry Grote by adding uniform patches bearing their numbers for the remainder of the season. Mays, who passed away in June, and Grote, who died in April, both played for the Mets from 1966-77 and helped the team win the 1969 World Series. The team's move is seen as an appreciation and respect for their contributions to the organization and city.
