They actually did go 40-15 after that loss to the Yankees, but 55 games later wasn't September 1, it was August 6.

Cool story. Also cool that Pat Mahomes Sr was pitching during this!

This is why I love baseball

Bobby tells a famous story and forgets what the actual call was. It was catcher's interference, not a catchers balk. If it was a balk then how did the batter end up getting first base? The runner was safe at second regardless. Piazza caught the ball basically in fair territory before it ever got the the plate which technically speaking prevented the batter from having an opportunity to hit the ball.

Dude, I will ride all day w an employee like Bobby V. Dedication to the game, and its (now-dead) tradition of having a few permanently concussed managers in hi profile spots like the Mets.

He got a bad rap in Boston. They loved him in Japan

The best (and next?) manager of the New York Mets, Bobby Valentine!!!

I thought the ump caught him and yelled at him that's a fine...
