Some of you know that I am a Mets fanboy. Nine times out of ten I wear a blue-and-orange hat, jersey, and/or t-shirt to Nationals Park, never mind that the Amazins are not listed on that day’s marquee.
During my formulative years, I rooted for Seaver, Koosman, Grote, Mazzilli, Hernandez, Gooden, and Carter. When the team went through a way-too-long, seven seasons of suckitude, I still managed to get hoarse cheering on names like Espinosa, Stearns, Henderson, and Kobel.
