The folks who bring you the A&E Home Video/MLB Productions DVD boxed set of the 1986 World Series have generously allowed some bloggers, including this one, to give away a set of these terrific DVDs. The first person to email me the answer to the following 3 Mets trivia questions will win the set:
- What was the name of the player who was the right-handed half of the platoon with Wally Bachman at 2B in 1985?
- Billy Beane was a first round pick of the New York Mets in what year?
- What was John Milner's nickname?
The first person to email me with the answer to all 3 questions is the lucky winner, and I'll post his/her name later on.
Update: We have a winner
Congratulations to George Collins, Dunnellon, FL, for knowing the answers were:
- Kelvin Chapman (Tuefel came on in 1986)
- 1980 (Beane had 3 hits in 18 ABs in parts of 2 seasons with the Mets)
- The Hammer (After Hank Aaron)
Thanks to everyone who participated.
Also, as part of the promotion of these great DVD sets, Mookie Wilson will be making 2 appearances today:
- 1 - 2 PM at the Borders on 100 Broadway in NYC
- 6 - 7:30 PM at the Best Buy on 1100 Old Country Road in Westbury
If you're near either one of those two places, you'll certainly want to check it out.

You were right the second time, Lou, but someone beat you to it.
