By all accounts, Buck Showalter made all the right moves this year, including inviting Mets icon Keith Hernandez to hang around the batting cage in spring training. What, you say, Hernandez wasn't allowed to mingle with the players? YES (or in this case, SNY,) it's true. As a result of Keith calling Mets games for the regional network, the previous owners didn't want to mix media and the Mendoza line. The new manager corrected that, and, as Keith recalls, even took him around on a golf cart to meet every single player at the training site in Port St. Lucie. The two men also have "Seinfeld" in common, although Hernandez was in twice as many episodes (two.) The World Series winner with both the Cardinals and the Mets still loves the games, but thinks they are way too long. Among other things, he suggests "fewer walks," and is genuinely annoyed when pitching changes are made by the winning team in an 8-0 game in the 8th inning. All that, plus where, exactly, did that mustache come from?
