Steve Dillon - The 24th Met Pitcher


     Steve Dillon joined the Mets on November 26th, 1962 after being selected from the Yankees in that era's equivalent of the Rule V draft.  Dillon only appeared in one game in 1963, giving up two runs in 1.2 innings pitched.  He spent most of the '64 season in the minors, but pitched three Major League innings, allowing three runs.  Dillon retired at the end of the '65 season.

     This baseball was signed by Mr. Dillon after being mailed to his home in March of 2018.
