Video New York Mets sport hockey sweaters for visit to Toront
At the moment, hockey is enjoying a large part of the sports spotlight with an Eastern Conference featuring teams from Manhattan and Newark.To commemorate this, the were all sporting hockey sweaters when they got off the bus in for their trip to play the Blue Jays. OK, so the timing happens to be coincidental as the Mets planned on this a while ago when deciding on their themes for road trips this season, but that just makes the story so much more fitting, so I'll go with it.Among the Mets you have Jason Bay, a Canadian boy. There's a lot of pre sure on him in this situation; hockey is in his bloodlines as a Canuck. He stepped up
Brian Winters Jersey to the plate and hit a home run with his choice, so to speak.To show off how deep the hockey roots go, Bay decided to go back in time and wear a Ray Ferraro Hartford Whalers jersey -- not one from his Vancouver -- seeing as he grew up not far away in B.C.Here's the scene from Toronto, with Mets manager Terry Collins explaining things in his sweater. As you'd expect, there are a lot of sweaters -- New York, not Texas -- in the bunch. Hey, stick with the local team and you can never go wrong.But the best, even better than Bay's Whalers jersey? Star third baseman David Wright sporting the Goldberg Mighty sweater from the movies. To see that with Wright and a bunch of the other Mets.I think I like the Mets a lot more now than I did a few minutes ago.
