On a more serious note, it's beautiful to see #24
finally retired in honor of Willie Mays.
And it's even more beautiful that it happens during a season where Robinson Cano was released by 3 different teams in a span of fewer than 90 days. [/petty]
Now let's take care of the other "unofficially" retired number, #8. For Yogi and Gary, both.
(Jesse Orosco must just be cursing the "3-batter" rule. He could still be a LOOGY, if they were allowed.)
ETA: the highlight must be 79-year-old Steve Dillon not only able to take the mound, not only throwing strikes, but hustling over to back up 3B when Mookie doubled over the disgusting scab in LF's head. (Scabs don't deserve names, of course.) Dillon, who pitched in all of 3 games in 1963-1964, showed more hustle than the scab (who was on the team this century) did either going back or coming in on the pop fly that Daniel Murphy dropped in front of him after that.
(You'll notice that Dillon wears #39. Edwin Diaz is lucky he's been pitching well. After all, Dillon is a lefty.)
