That’s what the subject line said when I checked my email during last night’s rain delay. The email was from the Long Island Ducks. I may have actually squealed when I saw it.
Long Island Ducks team officials today announced the signing of former Major League All-Star Edgardo Alfonzo. The longtime New York Mets fan favorite returns after spending the first months of the 2008 season with Quintana Roo (AAA) of the Mexican League, where he hit .280 with 12 doubles and 17 RBI in 55 games. In 2007 with the Ducks, Alfonzo hit .266 with five home runs and 56 RBI in 105 games. [more]
I miss Fonzie. He was hands down one of my favorite players. He had a fight and a spirit about him that you couldn’t help but love him*. Unfortunately ever since his knee(?) injury he was never really the same.
Anyway… who’s up for going to a Ducks game this year? We can do a drive-by of his home in Little Neck on our way to Citibank Park.
*just this girls opinion.
