Home Run Applesauce in Conversation: Bobby Bonilla

  • Summary

  • Welcome to Home Run Applesauce in Conversation, a podcast from Fans First Sports Network where we invite interesting people on the show to talk about themselves, the Mets, and more. Today, we welcome Bobby Bonilla to the show. Bobby was, at the time, the highest paid player in baseball when the Mets signed him in 1992. After being traded away during the 1995 season, Bonilla returned to the Mets in 1999 and aided in their playoff push. We talk to Bobby about his time as a Met, his infamous "Bobby Bonilla Day" every July 1, and a lot more. Here is a link to the article by Ted Berg that perfectly describes why the Mets' deferring Bonilla's money was a win for everyone. Bobby was on the show today to promote the Players' Trust Playmakers Classic, taking place on February 18, 2025 at Warehouse215 in Phoenix, AZ. The Playmakers Classic is not your typical fundraiser—it's an evening designed to engage, entertain, and inspire. Enjoy nonstop entertainment, food, wine and spirit tastings, live performances, and friendly competitions that make this event truly one-of-a-kind. Join Major League Baseball Players as we celebrate the spirit of giving back and raise crucial funds to support life-changing programs that uplift youth and communities in need across the U.S. and around the world. For more on the event, visit the Players Trust website. Tickets are available here. Go to HomeRunApplesauce.com for information on how to join our Patreon. And, as always, let's go Mets.
