Fun Mets fact

Sporting Goods

David Wright has been "insulted" 8 times this year by coming to the plate immediately after an intentional walk.

In those 8 at bats, he is 6 for 7, with 13 RBI.

Dear National League managers,

Keep intentionally walking the guy before Wright.

Sincerely,
The Mets

PS - Speaking of the Mets, the new predictably awful Subway commercial featuring Torre and Randolph at an actual Subway "restaurant" together, is a little less awful to me because that's my Subway. It's on 5th Avenue and 29th Street, if you want to experience the excitement.

I was going to post about this but didn't have time to research the numbers.

McClendon did it twice yesterday. The second time resulting in a 3-2 walk to load the bases for Jose Awfulman, who actually got a hit.
