Edgy MD Site Manager Posted October 3, 2022 Posted October 3, 2022 Kathleen O'Brien writing a guest opinion essay for today's Times.Much as I know I will never love an investment banker, I know I will never love the Yankees. But I let myself love a baseball team this summer, and it has gotten serious. The New York Mets have clinched a spot in the postseason....I began to have a good feeling about these Mets, even before I studied their widely admired manager, Buck Showalter. One thing I've noticed is that he is protective of his players. The Mets have been hit by pitches more than any other team and it makes him angry. Often the players responded to it in the proper style: batting the ball around and securing a win for the good guys.Showalter also speaks kindly about his team. “It's given me peace just knowing that these guys get it,” he said at one point this season. And: “We have a lot of guys with a pure heart. They want to win. They want to do the right thing.”https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/03/opinion/for-my-son-the-2022-mets-are-already-amazing.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/03/opinion/for-my-son-the-2022-mets-are-already-amazing.html
