Remember Butch Huskey, the Mets’ home run-hitting legend who passed away at 54 — a seven-year MLB veteran whose career spanned five teams but shone brightest in New York. Known for his power and versatility, he hit 86 homers overall, with a standout 1997 season featuring 24 homers and 81 RBIs. A true tribute to Jackie Robinson, Huskey was one of the last players allowed to wear No. 42 — switching to it in 1995 and even donning it in Seattle during his final season, becoming the last Mariner to sport the iconic number.
