Jose Lima given Jackie Robinson's retired number of 42

&box-When Robinson's family gathered and Bud Selig spoke and Shea Stadium became an extension of Ebbets Field, the Mets again showing their status as an heir to the old Brooklyn Dodgers.



All of baseball was to retire the jersey that night in honor of a man whose impact reached well beyond the game.



And there were the Mets yesterday ho-humming all of it, handing over the jersey nine years after being handed the privilege of hosting the ceremony.-box&
