The New York Mets announced Monday that they will retire David Wright's No. 5 and induct their former captain into the team Hall of Fame this summer.
The Mets will hold a ceremony for the seven-time All-Star prior to their July 19 game against the Cincinnati Reds, almost exactly 21 years after he made his Major League debut.
Wright, 42, batted .296 with 242 home runs and 970 RBIs
