Bench also retweeted this one:
Last month, Bench encouraged fans to follow fellow Hall of Famer Rod Carew on Twitter.
In March, Bench shared information about how to donate to the Pat Barry Memorial Scholarship Fund as a tribute to his long-time friend who died earlier this year of complications from COVID-19.
In January, Bench said he and fellow Hall of Famers still consider Hank Aaron the home run king.
Last December, Bench said he was brought to tears by a friend who bought more than $1 million of his memorabilia at auction and donated the items back to him.
