METS HONOR AMERICA WITH 9/11 MEMORIAL JERSEY
Date: 2001
The first MLB game in New York City following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack was held 10 days later at Shea Stadium. The Mets had a comeback 3-2 victory over the Atlanta Braves, wearing jerseys with an American flag patch and the 9-11-01 date sewn on sleeves.
