Mets finally bringing back Old Timers’ Day

On Tuesday morning, the New York Mets announced they’re bringing back a fan favorite to their 2021 schedule.

Old Timers’ Day is back, baby!

The game will take place before the Mets host the Rockies on Saturday, August 27.

That is, of course, assuming there are games to be played during this regular season; the players are still locked out (thanks, Rob Manfred).

Players from all the way back to 1962 will participate in the game this year. Frank Thomas (the Met, not the Hall of Famer selling male enhancement pills), Ron Swoboda, Jon Matlack, Felix Millán, Mookie Wilson, Howard Johnson and Bobby Ojeda will represent the older generations.
