Doesn't look like Gomez to me.
Wasn't he on the DL at this point? Would he have even been traveling with the Mets?

I don't even know where to begin!

Somebody's had so many brushes with greatness that he's unaffected by them is seeking out the place where the players hang out.

He's feels he's being totally cool, but someone complains about him and he's singled out for ejection.

After he's ejected, his cousin tackles him on a Chicago sidewalk.

I guess you "had to be there" but I'm glad I wasn't!

Greatness, in this case, equals Ruben Gotay and Carlos Gomez.

Absolutely. It's going to be hard to top "Rogers Parties with the Mets in Chicago and Then Gets Thrown Out and Tackled by his Cousin."

Which would be a great title for an old Waylon Jennings tune.

I like how the lesson that Steve draws from this is, essentially, that it's cheaper to take a subway than to take a cab.
