NEW YORK—The 2012 season will mark the 50th anniversary for the New York Mets and on Wednesday they unveiled their plans for the season-long celebration, including a new logo to go with their new uniforms.
David Wright, who was on hand to model the new home uniform, was proud to be a part of the celebration, “Growing up kind of a displaced Mets fan it means a lot to be here today to be a part of the celebration. Although things haven’t gone well for us lately, there is a lot to celebrate in this organization.”
The Mets will wear home pinstripes, and white and road greys, which is more in line with the inaugural look. Dave Howard, executive vice president of Business Operations said, “We thought it was an appropriate opportunity to go to a more traditional look.”
