Just out of curiosity I went to look at the Mets in the list and was surprised to see Kevin Elster. I've apparently blocked out his half season in Philadelphia.
ReplyDeleteElster had a role in the movie "Little Big League". I did not know that (nor have I seen the movie).
I've never even seen a picture of Elster in a Phillies uniform. If a good color photo does exist, it's just begging for a custom 1995 Topps card.
