Happy Anniversary

to Julio Franco, who made his major league debut with the Phillies 25 years ago today. David Wright wasn't even born yet when Julio started playing major league baseball.


Julio is LHJ's favorite Met, whom he affectionately refers to as "Julius." And you have to respect the guy for having no idea that today was his MLB anniversary until someone from SNY asked him about it!

my favorite part about julio franco is that when he comes up to bat his song is an energetically soulful female voice singing "people get ready, jesus is coming!"
