Van Lingle Metsie

Swan Swan H Mar 23 2013 07:32 AM

I love Dave Frishberg's 'Van Lingle Mungo,' which, as most of you know, is a song whose lyrics consist entirely of the names of baseball players. One boring afternoon I tried to build a Metsie version of the lyrics, and here it is, with a link to a YouTube video someone made showing the players in Frishberg's song, so you can play along. No, I did not make a video with the Mets players. I wasn't that bored.

Shinjo is absolutely the right guy to Mets this up. Well done.
