Since I’m on the road and had this leftover rerun from July 4th weekend I figured I’d use this one tonight.
Mike from Bayside just sent me the coolest thing ever.
Behold…Tom Seaver, August 1977. Think about that that means. Watch, then let’s discuss.
It just looks so wrong. The red. The Reds. It looks unholy. I can deal with pictures of Tom in other ballparks, but there he is, pitching in my youth wearing the wrong color.
What the hell is happening when the ladies are dancing on the dugout?
Here is a better memory…Seaver’s first game…with the very short lived pale green outfield wall.

How did the video embed like that? Thought it would just be a link.
I was working for the parks dept. at shea in ’77…the day seaver returned to the mets was a sellout..i think standing room only..
