The Force hasn’t exactly been with the Mets of late, but George Lucas is hoping to change that.

Next Tuesday will be Star Wars Night at Citi Field. Fans will each receive a Met T-shirt featuring Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia.

And with every ticket sold, the team will donate $5 to Stand Up To Cancer, a group devoted to funding medical breakthroughs.

With Darth Vader joining Stormtroopers in promoting the Blu-Ray release of “The Star Wars Saga” the following day, Met fans are encouraged to dress up as Jedi, Ewoks and Sith Lords.

There will also be “Star Wars” trivia played during the baseball game, with movie-related prizes awarded.

You don't believe in the Force, do you?

close. it was Star Wars Stand up to Cancer night. those were combined. We stood mid-4th.

Filipino Heritage was forgotten except for some sort of pregame dance thing that I missed online with Shake Shack, but I've got pictures of the other stuff.
