The New York Mets will honor late manager Davey Johnson, who passed away at 82, by wearing a memorial “Davey” patch on their uniforms this season.

His family will participate in the ceremonial first pitch at the season opener, with former players Darryl Strawberry and Mookie Wilson catching. Mets owners praised Johnson’s leadership and impact on the team’s success.
