Mookie Wilson

William Hayward Wilson
Batted: Both
Threw: Right
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 170 lbs.
Born: February 9, 1956 in Bamberg, SC
Drafted: 2nd round 1977 by the Mets
Departed: traded to the Toronto Blue Jays for Jeff Musselman and Mike Brady, July 1989

 

Pictured on the card above (1998 Fleer Sports Illustrated World Series Fever) is what is arguably the most famous moment in Mets history, the grounder that went between Bill Buckner's legs and was the turning point in the 1986 World Series. Mookie was a longtime fan favorite at Shea Stadium even discounting that "magnificent moment," though, and is a member of the official New York Mets Hall of Fame. There is more Mookie memorabilia pictured below.
