NEW YORK METS TO HOST BATTLE OF THE BADGES ON

The NYPD vs. FDNY annual charity baseball game presented by Your Local Ford Stores will take place at Citi Field

FLUSHING, N.Y., July 25, 2025 – The New York Mets will host Battle of the Badges, presented by Your Local Ford Stores, at Citi Field on Sunday, August 17 at 4:10 p.m.The NYPD vs. FDNY annual charity baseball game will feature teams consisting of former high school, college and minor league baseball players who now protect and serve the local community as members of New York’s Finest and New York’s Bravest.

 

Mets Hall of Famer, former Captain and seven-time All-Star David Wright will be returning as the host of the game and will honor a NYPD and FDNY hero prior to the game.

 

“The Battle of the Badges game is one my favorite days of the year. Growing up in a Police Household, I quickly learned that the true heroes in the community are the police officers and firefighters that put their lives on the line to keep us safe,” said Wright. “While most of us would run away from trouble, First Responders run towards it. The Battle of the Badges game is a great reminder to thank First Responders for their bravery, service and commitment to their communities. I hope to see you there.”

 

Tickets are $20 with a portion of the ticket sales benefiting local FDNY and NYPD charities.

 

“The Mets are delighted to help give back to local charities by hosting the Battle of the Badges for the fourth straight year,” said Mets Senior Director of Community, Inclusion and Player Relations Donovan Mitchell. “It’s been an honor to support those who protect and serve with such a memorable event.”

 

Last year FDNY defeated NYPD, 5-1 to give New York’s Bravest their second straight win and a 14-12 advantage over New York’s Finest in the historic battle.

Collect Major teams up with MLB

 


If you are of a certain age, you remember the LJN WWF Figures that came out on the 1980s. You had Hulk Hogan, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Mr. Fuji, and of course the Macho Man Randy Savage. A few years back the fellas over at CollectMajor.com created figured paying homage to that style. They created Big Rubber Guys! This toy line has helped fill in the missing pieces of who never got a figure from that timeline and even added to it with some wrestling stars from today like Danhausen and All Ego Ethan Page. Of course the Founders of the line have had figures themselves put into the line, at first as proof of concept. They are even partnered with All Elite Wrestling with some great figures announced today for preorder from AEW at ShopAEW.com.

Why am I talking about all this when this is primarily a baseball fan advocacy blog? Major Collect has a licensing deal with MLB to make Big Rubber Guys! And guess who is leading it off?


Mr Met! Also is his arch rival The Phillie Phanatic. And not to mention the Cincinnati Reds Mach Man Randy Savage who was drafted by the Reds to play baseball. More details coming soon.






Great job here by under Mets Fan Brian Myers, The Indie God Matt Cardona, and Mike Kanik.

Mr Met WWE Night “Yeet” Bobblehead

 


This was a fun ticket package giveaway. I wanted to start off talking about how organized and how good the redemption team was with this promotion. Chris Brown I’m giving a big shout out to you and your team for this. I’ll talk about this in the next few paragraphs.

To get this special WWE Night BOBBLEHEAD, you had to buy a ticket package that included Mr “Yeet” Met. This wasn’t given out to the first 15000 fans but to those who purchased the tickets for the special sections. When you got your digital ticket it told you that you had to use the QR Code to redeem it over near section 129 by the Group Redemption area. I expected to see a long line and just a few folks working the kiosk. NOPE! That’s not what I saw Mets Executive Chris Brown,who I have known for years looking at the tickets to make sure no one who didn’t purchase a WWE night package  mistakenly got a BOBBLEHEAD and also directing traffic to multiple tables, yes I said multiple tables. There was no real line up at the time when I went and it I watched for a few mins to see how every thing just flowed so well. Again Chris and team, great job there.

Oh yeah, the bobble head and the skits that Tiffany Stratton and Nia Jax were in were pretty fun too!

Citi Field showing its age.

 
Pic From Metspolice.com


One of the big things I keep saying about Steve Cohen wanting to build a casino in the parking lot besides the fact A) its parkland and B) there is a school and affordable housing being built across 126th street is what is going to happen when it is time to build a new baseball stadium to replace Citi Field. Citi Field is starting to show its age and the hermit Shannon Shark has noticed it also.

 Like the LF retired numbers.  It just looks sloppy that a bunch of them are faded.

Walking in, I noticed the bricks.  Remember when everyone paid a few hundred bucks to honor their loved ones and line the WIlpons pockets?  Those are all pretty beat up and faded.  It’s the sort of a thing a billionaire (whose been known to write pretty big checks for things) could just be cool about to restore, but he isn’t going to do that, is he?

Maybe not worry about LED Ribbons to make money on Ads and work on the stadiums infrastructure?

Do the Mets think their fans have deep pockets like the owners do. $1500 bucks plus having to buy a ticket to the game? Really? That price should include a premium seat at least for that price!

PETE ALONSO & EDWIN DĺAZ JOIN FRANCISCO LINDOR ON NL ALL-STAR TEAM


 PETE ALONSO & EDWIN DĺAZ JOIN FRANCISCO LINDOR ON NL ALL-STAR TEAM

 

FLUSHING, N.Y., July 6, 2025 – Major Leage Baseball today announced that first baseman Pete Alonso and RHP Edwin Díaz will join starting shortstop Francisco Lindor on the National League All-Star team. The 95th All-Star Game will take place on Tuesday, July 15 in Atlanta.

 

Alonso was named to the All-Star team for the fifth time in his career, the most by any first baseman in team history – two more than Keith Hernandez. 

 

Alonso becomes the sixth player in franchise history to be named to five or more All-Star teams, joining Tom Seaver (nine), David Wright (seven), Mike Piazza (seven), Darryl Strawberry (seven) and Carlos Beltrán (five).

 

Díaz was named to an All-Star team for the third time in his career and second as a member of the Mets (also in 2022). He was an American League All-Star in 2018 with Seattle. 

 

Lindor was announced as the National League starting shortstop on July 2. Lindor will make his first trip to the Midsummer Classic as a member of the Mets and his fifth overall after making four straight American League All-Star teams with Cleveland from 2016-19.

 

Lindor will become the third Mets shortstop to start for the National League, joining Buddy Harrelson (1971) and José Reyes (2007). Reyes was named a starter in 2011, but was injured and didn’t start.
