Bobby V to Boston!

by 2 November 30, 2011

If you haven't heard the news, our beloved Bobby V has been hired by the Red Sox to fill the managers role. What's this shirt all about? If you're a new Mets fan or have a terrible memory we'll refresh it for you... Valentine's most memorable game as a manager occurred on June 9, 1999. In the 12th inning of a 14 inning marathon with the Toronto Blue Jays, Mike Piazza was called for catcher's interference on Craig Grebeck. Valentine was ejected by home plate umpire Randy Marsh for arguing the call, and returned to the dugout an inning later in a disguise (a fake moustache). Unamused, Major League Baseball fined Valentine $5,000 and suspended him for three games. The Mets went on to win the game 4-3. PICK ONE UP NOW FOR 15% off! Use the code BOBBYV before checkout.
