Mets talk about their at-bat music

This is from late 2007 (as evidenced by Jeff Conine), but I’ve never seen it before. Sadly, few of the players say anything cool, but there are a couple of nuggets of Rickey Henderson-inspired awesomeness in the middle. Jeff Conine is predictably uninteresting.

David Wright likes the Beastie Boys. It’s really funny to hear David Newhan say, “gangster.”

The Pedro Feliciano part — dismissing all of it — is particularly entertaining in how boring it is. He is the most workmanlike dude imaginable. It’s kind of awesome.

One game Feliciano got out Ryan Howard, Chase Utley and Raul Ibanez on a total of six pitches or something, so I went to ask him about it, and he was just like, “yeah, that’s my job, I get lefties out.” So, trying to get something more out of him, I asked him if he got especially geared up for the Phillies with all their great lefties, and he was like, “nah, just doing my job, getting lefties out.”
