  1. That's always been one of my favorite Met stats. Stork's 1 hr, 1 rbi.
  2. A great moment spoiled by great detective work. Eddie was probably getting Roberto to sign it for him with the hope that he could someday, somehow, figure a way to sell it from his den.
  3. The ump appears to be HOFer Doug Harvey, who was the second base ump in that game.
  4. I would tell Beltran, on an 0-2 count, protect the plate.
  5. Maybe after Selig overturns the bad call, he can review the home plate umpires wide strike zone toward the end of the game. That ump clearly knew what his place in history would be.
  6. Galaragga showed tremendous class. I have alot more respect for his handling of the situation than I do of his ability to throw a perfect game.
  7. You should still go in and inquire. Maybe it was Donn Clendenon or Don Cardwell's birthday. Don Bosch? Don Rowe?
  8. I've met Jose many times. He was as great a guy in person as he seemed on television. He always kept it real with the fans. It was sad that he couldn't perform in NY the way he had before. He was easy to root for. It's a sad day for those who appreciate good people. Look out St. Peter, it's Lima Time!
  9. Better Otis, than Trot.
  10. Dear Arod, Know me now? Your new bff, Dallas PS, Happy Mother's Day, bitch.
  11. Mets fans had the Yankees fans beat in one telling category: they seem to pay a lot more attention. Not only do they monitor their team's progress more often and make more bets, they listen to substantially more sports radio (26% to 17%). This backs the old fair weather fan theory.
  12. Just got a call from a buddy at the game. He just saw old friend Shawon Dunston at the ballpark. I think Shawon works for the Giants.
  13. Lerrin Lagrow Carmen Fanzone
  14. Coco Laboy Ed Halicki Pepe Frias Joe Grzenda Dave Heaverlo Tito Fuentes Joe Azcue
  15. Tough week for legends.
  16. Swan Swan H wrote: A sad day for a lot of folks in Michigan, no doubt. He was scheduled to be one of the honorees at WFUV's annual gala tomorrow night, along with Levon Helm and Bob Schieffer. He still is scheduled for that award. Al Kaline will be there to accept. With a heavier heart than originally planned I'm sure.
  17. Buddy, still going strong. Sitting in dugouts on Long Island some 40+ years later.
  18. Dick Kenworthy. Former Chisox third baseman. Of interest to Met fans because Dick appeared as a Met on his 1968 Topps baseball card.
  19. THE FRENCH CONNECTION!!! OOOH!! JASONS A BAY-BE BOOMER!! ALL HAIL!!! GENERAL EISENHOWER!!!
  20. JOSE CAN YOU SEE!!! WRIGHT DOWN BROADWAY!!! BLANCO POPULAR!!! A BARAJAS BLAST!!! A FRENCH KISS!!! OOH BAY-BE BAY-BE!!! RING A BELL!!! AN ANGEL GETS HIS WINGS!!! JACOBS LADDER!!! Sorry so corny.
  21. Incidentally, Craig Anderson sold the RV after traveling the US for three years with his wife, and bought a retirement home in Dunnellon, FL, where he lives today. Occasionally helps out the pitchers at the local HS.
  22. I once met Ed Bauta, and asked him to sign with his Met number, and he signed #41. "Like Seaver" But I've never been able to confirm otherwise.
  23. KC Royals-Announced the retirement of C Vance Wilson.
  24. MFS62 wrote: Heard on the radio the other night that Scott Strickland has left Georgia Tech, where he was an assistant coach, to become the new head baseball coach at Kent State. Later That's Scott Stricklin. A different player altogether from the bum we remember. I think the former Met is still hanging around the minors somewhere.
