UnforMETable, Episode 3: Wilmer ‘Vinegar Bend’ Mizell

Welcome to UnforMETable, a new show from Amazin’ Avenue that looks back on less heralded, more obscure, but quintessential Mets players from the past This week, Rob Wolff travels back in time to the franchise’s inaugural season of 1962 to take a look at a pitcher with a very unique nickname who spent the tail end of a solid major league career with Casey’s fabled ‘62 squad. Learn about the historic World Series he participated in, his thoughts on his final days with the Mets, and his at least equally notable post-baseball career.
