Tales from the Teepee Volume 3: Keith Hernandez


World Series champion, NL MVP, 5-time all-star, 11-time gold glover, sitcom television star, Cleveland Indians first baseman. In 1990 the Cleveland Indians decided to shake up their squad by trading Joe Carter and replacing his bat with former New York Mets captain Keith Hernandez. "Mex" seemed to be the veteran leadership the Tribe was looking for, as he was signed to a 2 year $3.5 million dollar contract. Boy was Hank Peters wrong on this one. The Golden Mustache played in only 43 games for Cleveland, batting a solid .200 with one homerun. He subsequently retired the year after, laughing all the way to the bank. Everytime Tribe fans see him hawking hair dye with Walt Frazier on various cable channels, we cringe in disgust. If I ever have the displeasure of meeting this guy and he introduces himself as "I'm Keith Hernandez," I will definitely not be impressed
