The last time Mets fans saluted Tom Seaver he was throwing heat, because of course he was.
Seaver will not be making any more public appearances, his family announced in a statement Thursday that stated the legendary, Hall of Fame pitcher has been diagnosed with dementia.
So it’s a good time to remember the last time Mets fans could tell one of the most popular players in the team’s history how they felt about him.
The 2013 All-Star Game — a game for the Mets and Citi Field to show off their best and brightest — had Seaver as the guest of honor.
