A PAEAN TO THE METS

Stolen and slightly revised from Jill's Jokelines

On the day before the fifth game of the World Series, a man approached Bobby Valentine and said I have a race horse you should add to your starting lineup. Valentine said, "Are you ought of your mind, what good is a horse?

The man replied, "Wait until you see him bat."
All the players are laughing, until the horse comes to bat. At this
point, the horse grabs the bat and everyone quiets down. They stare at
the horse.
The pitcher, just shrugs his shoulders, and throws the ball toward home
plate, when astonishingly, the horse hits the ball deep into the
outfield.
The horse just stands there and does not move. Valentine yells
at the man to tell the horse to run to first base.
The man looks back at Valentine and replies, "If he could run,
he'd be at Belmont!"
