For the Mets fans

[b.heagy]

Going through some of my sports photos and found this gem. Wonder where the cart is today. Notice the headlights. Thought it may bring back some memories for some of you die hard Mets fans. Photo was taken July 20 1975.

Nice photo. I remember those bullpen carts very well.

I thought that was Bob Feller in the photo when I first saw it.

Thanks for sharing.

Can you tell who the lefty is in the bullpen? Jon Matlack?

I remember an ebay auction in 2004 or 2005 where the seller was offering the actual bullpen cart used by the Mets in the 1970's. I remember this auction clearly. Does anybody else remember?

The auction photographs were convincing. The seller had a "Buy it Now" price of $250,000.00, but also indicated that he was willing to negotiate.

They are referring to the pitcher in the background not the guy who looks like Bob Feller

Here's the list of pitchers from the 75 Mets team.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say the guy in the photo is
NOT Nino Espinosa.
