Piazza was named to his 8th consecutive All Star team in 2000 but wasn’t able to play in the game due to a concussion that he sustained when he was hit in the head by a Roger Clemens fastball on July 8th.
The two met again during the World Series that year as the Yankees and Mets faced off in the Subway Series. Piazza faced Clemens in game 2 and there was another incident. A bat was broken and thrown words were exchanged benches cleared.ultimately no one was ejected and the Yankees went on to win game 2 and the series in five games. 100% Poly mesh body; layered twill; woven cooperstown jocktag; self fabric name/ yr player ID label button placket; knit rib sleeves and neck.
