As we sit here on Tuesday, May 23rd, Mets manager Buck Showalter is celebrating his 67th birthday. He’ll be doing so in Chicago as New York prepares to face the Cubs at Wrigley Field. And with Kodai Senga taking the hill for the series opener, Showalter will be wearing special shoes that he only puts on when the right-hander is toeing the slab.
We didn’t know that was the case until Brittany Ghiroli of The Athletic said so in an article that took an in-depth look at the veteran skipper’s fashion style.
