I was 7 years ago today that we as Mets fans bit farewell to the voice of the Mets.
MLB.com has a tribute page up from when he passed away the following summer. It includes the pregame ceremony from before his final game.
It's worth watching. Find the item called "Mets pregame tribute to Bob Murphy" and click on the link next to it. I can't seem to mimic the scripting to link to the popup window directly. While you're there, check out the other links. A few of them still work.
Watch it. He tells a good story of his 42 seasons with the Mets. That may be worth including in the 50 year history of the New York Mets.
I still say SNY should rebroadcast these pregame ceremonies as winter/rain delay/filler programming like they do with Mets Yearbook.
