This very well could be Bartolo Colon’s final season in Major League Baseball, and the Minnesota Twins found the perfect way to honor him.
The 44-year-old starting pitcher has enjoyed a bit of a resurgence since joining the Twins, going 4-3 with a 3.94 ERA in 10 outings for Minnesota. So on Sept. 15, fans who purchase a special ticket package for the team’s game against the Toronto Blue Jays will receive an amazing T-shirt for “Big Sexy Night.”

For the uninitiated, Colon’s nickname is Big Sexy, a moniker he earned thanks to his 5-foot-11, 285-pound frame. He didn’t wear it on his jersey for Players Weekend, but luckily, the Twins are giving fans the chance to wear it whenever they want.
