Mickey Callaway’s birthday was May 13. The last guy to wish him “Happy Birthday” got a broken nose and black eye for his troubles.
- After yesterday’s loss to the Cubs, there was an incident in the Mets clubhouse where manager Mickey Callaway called Newsday beat writer Tim Healey a bad word and ordered him out of the clubhouse. Mets pitcher Jason Vargas then threatened Healey and had to be held back by Noah Syndergaard and Carlos Gomez. Healey’s crime? He said “See you tomorrow, Mickey” at the end of the press gathering.
