The Mets Police: Mets Jerseys With Osh41 (Part 1)

Mets Jerseys With Osh41 (Part 1)

Finally got Osh41 to start digging. Here's one of what hopefully will be a frequent series. Here's Osh.

This is a circa 72-73 Mets road jersey - Shannon and I dreamed of the day the Mets would reintroduce these jerseys, we would watch 1973 World Series films during rain delays and call each other to discuss how cool the road jerseys looked and hoped they'd make a return.

The Mets introduced polyester jerseys in 72 and got rid of the classic 'New York' lettering beginning in 1974 so this specific jersey existed for only 2 years.

Mets road jerseys did not display 'New York' from 1974 through 1986. In 1987 New York returned to the road uni's in the form of the script New York (we'll talk about them in future posts)

If You're Visiting For The First Time

If you are visiting The Mets Police for the first time, welcome.

This blog aims to be a little different. We're less likely to complain about a pitching change than we are likely to complain about what the pitcher was wearing.

We're about Mets history and tradition. We'd like to see a Seaver statue at Citi Field. We'd like the black uniforms to go away. We'd like the team to always treat the fans with respect.

We're just regular old Mets fans like you who have migrated from the uppers to the Promenade where we were saddened when we found plexiglass. Finally, for all our complaining we just want the franchise to win the World Series (while nicely dressed).

The site is updated several times a day, usually morning, noon, and night (cliche but true) with other items as they come in.

Mets Police in no way claims to be news nor accurate, including anything to which we link. It's just a blog. Read the blog and/or take our advice at your own risk.

We strongly encourage everyone to support the New York Mets and their business partners, just don't wear a black jersey while doing so.

Welcome!
