MVMet: “I only mention it because sometimes there’s a man… I won’t say a hero, ‘cause, what’s a hero? But sometimes, there’s a man. And I’m talkin’ about the Duda here. Sometimes, there’s a man, well, he’s the man for his time and place. He fits right in there. And that’s the Duda, at 1B for the New York Mets.” ~The Big Dudawski
