There was once a time when Hunter Pence was one of the most popular players in baseball and it wasn’t because of how he played the game.
In August 2014, a few New York Mets fans showed up to their team’s games against the San Francisco Giants with hilarious signs directed at Pence and it turned into a league-wide trend.
Every time Pence and the Giants made a trip to a new city, there were new fans waiting with hilarious signs directed at the outfielder.
Well, on Saturday, September 26, 2020, Pence shared a heartfelt video on social media announcing he’s stepping away from the game for good.
Pence played 1,707 games over 14 years and compiled 244 home runs, 942 RBI and 120 stolen bases during that time, and owns a career .279 batting average and .334 OBP.
