Pedro Martinez wasn’t expected to be in attendance at the Mets’ Alumni Classic this weekend at Citi Field.
However, after changing some things around in his schedule, the three-time Cy Young award winner will now be on hand on Saturday afternoon.
“I couldn’t miss the opportunity to see my Mets family again,” Martinez told Jay Horwitz. “It will be great to see the fans, they were always wonderful to me during my time there and I can’t wait to say hello again.”
Martinez spent four years at the backend of his career in the Big Apple, locking up his final two All-Star appearances.
His former teammates Carlos Beltran, Carlos Delgado, John Maine, Jose Reyes, Endy Chavez, Paul Lo Duca, and Mike Pelfrey will also participate on Team Shea Stadium in the three-inning exhibition.
The action is set to get underway prior to the 4:10 first pitch between the Mets and Rangers.
