By Jay Horwitz Another chapter in our history came to an end today when Joe Pignatano, the last living coach from the 1969 Mets, passed away in Naples, Florida after a long illness. He was 92. Piggy was a baseball lifer who was the bullpen coach with us from 1968–1981. He took great pride to make sure his bullpen guys were ready to go not matter what the situation. Joe Torre called him “A good soul who loved the game.”
