Minor league guy

In the Mets-Cardinals game yesterday, the Cardinals inserted a player wearing 91 into the game. Josh Lewin on WFAN didn't recognize him and apparently neither did Fox:

The Mets' broadcasters didn't know either. The other Cardinals' players all had their names on the back of their jersys, this guy for some reason didn't. The Mets' announcers just called him #91.

What's even better is that he's on third base. So "I don't know" was literally on 3rd...

...and while we're waiting to see if he's related to this gentleman...



...let's all sing the Minor League Guy song. All together, and in unison:

♪ Lucky there's a Minor League Guy,
♪ Lucky there's a man who, positively can do,
♪ All the things that make us laugh and cry
♪ He's our Minor League Guy!

One thing that has always stood out to me attending ST games in Florida is the abundance of high numbers and huge rosters on both sides.
