Shea Stadium - The Final Season
Shea Stadium's 45th and final season as the home of the Mets is being played in the shadow of its successor Citi Field.
There are several ways to see the future rising up against the present; the view above is from the Shea Stadium/Willets Point subway station platform, while below are the shots seen on telecasts with Citi Field rising from just beyond the outfield.
The Mets are counting down the remaining games at Shea. The mascot Mister Met participates along with an invited guest.
The sweeping panorama of Shea Stadium's circular stands and multi-colored seats.
1st inning action from Thursday May 15th, with the Mets hosting the Washington Nationals.Zooming in on Mets shortstop and leadoff batter Jose Reyes.(Below:) Bottom of the 9th tension... Mets down 1-0, Carlos Beltran on 3rd base, one out, Carlos Delgado batting. (Seconds later, he'd line into a game-ending double play.)
