NEW YORK (CBSNewYork)- While New York is beginning to re-open, the coronavirus pandemic remains a considerable threat. Local and state officials continue to remind New Yorkers of the importance of wearing a mask whenever they are out in public in order to help mitigate the virus’ spread. In attempting to help that effort, local artist Eric “Efdot” Friedensohn has teamed up with Topps and Mets legend Dwight “Doc” Gooden for a new artistic interpretation of Gooden’s 1985 baseball card.
The card, which drops Tuesday on Topps’ website, features Gooden with his nickname, Dr. K wearing a mask with Mets and his number 16 on it.
