The New York Mets will pay tribute to franchise legend Jerry Koosman by wearing a commemorative uniform patch during the 2027 season, according to a report from NorthJersey.com.
Koosman, a left-handed pitcher, was a key member of the 1969 "Miracle Mets" team that captured the franchise's first World Series championship. He spent 12 seasons with the Mets from 1967 to 1978, compiling a 140-137 record with a 3.09 ERA and earning two All-Star selections.
The patch will serve as a lasting recognition of Koosman's contributions to the organization's early success. Further details about the patch design and specific games when it will be worn have not yet been announced by the club.
