What happened: Sunday's Mets date is framed as Rose's goodbye. The game has not started, with New York still at 0-0 before first pitch.

Why it matters: The signoff pulls focus beyond the field because Rose has been a defining Mets voice in New York. That gives the scheduled start added weight even before play begins.

What to watch: Watch for Rose's farewell once Sunday's scheduled start turns into game action.
