NEW YORK — It was something so normal: Just two former teammates playing catch.
The ball hitting the glove, the grass under their feet and the adoration of the crowd.
Two members of the 1969 World Series-winning Mets team playing catch on the front lawn of a home on Long Island. Fans, neighbors and everyone in between wanted to come outside and see Bud Harrelson and Art Shamsky having a catch. They honked their horns, they clapped and they cheered.
