Mets All Time Team

SNY – Sports New York is showing it now,  a 2012 event, in celebrating Mets 50th Anniversary. It’s hosted by Kevin Burkhardt who just moved to Giants, with Howie Rose and Gary Cohen (two NY Jew who know Mets so well..). A few players I knew and most I don’t:

  • Davey Johnson as manager
  • Mike Piazza (C),
  • Keith Hernandez (1B),
  • Edgardo Alfonzo (2B),
  • Jose Reyes (SS)
  • David Wright (3B)
  • Carlos Beltran (CF),
  • Darryl Strawberry (RF)
  • Cleon Jones (LF)
  • Tom Seaver (RHP) pither
  • Jerry Koosman (LHP)
  • Roger McDowell (RHP)
  • Tug McGraw (LHP)

However, when Right Fielder Darryl Strawberry walks out, onto the stage, the audience stands up. They stand up again when Darryl walks off the stage. Tom Seaver got a standing ovation too (the three pitchers I knew did not win). When it’s over, all the elected players get on the stage again with the hosts, Darryl is the tallest of them all.
