Note: DW’s First-Ever Walk-Off Home Run

by Matthew Cerrone on August 8th, 2008 at 8:26 am

Yesterday was David Wright’s first walk-off home run, ever, including T-Ball, Little League and High School, as he pointed out to reporters following the game.

“I’m always celebrating everyone else’s, but to be the one that jumps into the pile at home plate is pretty fun.”

as Brooklyn Met Fan points out, maybe the reason people give wright a pass for night’s like he had on Wednesday, is because he comes right back for a day like Thursday…

Yesterday was the 354th walk-off win in team history, and their sixth of the 2008 season.
