Today is Benny Agbayani’s 44th birthday, so why not pay tribute to him?
Agbayani hit one of the more famous homers in Mets’ history in the 13th inning of Game 3 of the 2000 NLDS. This propelled the Mets to a series win, and they eventually went on to the World Series, which they lost in five games to the crosstown Yankees.
Here’s a look at Agbayani’s heroics. I can still hear the fans chanting, “BENNY!” “BENNY!” “BENNY!”
