NEW YORK -- Mets legend Tom Seaver will be remembered in an amazin' way.
The Mets will unveil a statue of the iconic pitcher outside Citi Field during a ceremony before the team's home opener on Friday.
As CBS2's Steve Overmyer reported, the statue will stand 10 feet tall and show Seaver in his signature pitching motion.
"Well I think it was too late. After he retired, they should've had one up there, because he was 'The Franchise.' I mean he was the best player we had," said Ed Kranepool, who played with Seaver.
