Bobby Valentine, in Disguise Again, Revels in His Most Famous Moment With Mets

Published by Sam Flores

NEW YORK (AP) — Bobby Valentine was just trying to keep things loose — and perhaps save his job — when he donned a makeshift disguise and returned to the New York Mets’ dugout after being ejected from a game against the Toronto Blue Jays on June 9, 1999. It turned into a defining moment, maybe even the most memorable of his 40-plus years in baseball. On the eve of his induction into the Mets Hall of Fame, Valentine reveled in that clandestine act Friday night when the former manager again wore sunglasses and a fake mustache while throwing out the ceremonial first pitch to a similarly disguised Mr. Met. The 76-year-old Valentine, who will be honored Saturday alongside ex-Mets teammate Lee Mazzilli, emerged from the New York dugout and received a warm hand from a Citi Field crowd that included fans already adorned in the ballpark giveaway — sunglasses and a fake mustache. Valentine moved a few steps in front of the mound and tossed a pitch to the team mascot, whose hat read: …

Henry Pollock revels in pantomime villain role but Northampton still thrashed by Bordeaux

Henry Pollock revels in pantomime villain role but Northampton still thrashed by Bordeaux

At half-time, Saints trailed by 17 points and against Jalibert, Penaud, Louis Bielle-Biarrey and company the scoreline could easily have turned pear-shaped. To their credit, the visitors did not fold, even if a couple of the hosts’ tries were soft. Tommy Freeman crossed from close range, as did Pollock, before Fischetti – who had to return late on for Emmanuel Iyogun after his early hooking – bagged the consolation bonus. Northampton, despite their Prem hegemony, were beaten and humbled in the bear-pit; Pollock, however, cannot stop catching the eye.
