Darryl Strawberry has given new life to an all-time unsettling tale involving one of his former teammates on the Mets.

Despite appearing to have worn out his welcome with at the end of a tumultuous eight years in New York, Chamberlain had only positive things to say Monday about his old team.
Brett Gardner, raking at the dish, has unquestionably been the Bombers' MVP, especially considering Masahiro Tanaka's recent absence. But a huge test awaits.
The job he's doing in his seventh year is perhaps the best of his career. Joe Girardi has managed to keep this undermanned team on the edge of contention, with an assist from his GM.
Maybe it was a good thing Sandy Alderson didn't pull the trigger on anything last Thursday. He might have been enticed to give up a young pitcher or two.

After one of the craziest MLB trade deadlines ever, let's take a look at who made the best moves of the day.
"I think we're going to compete. I think we're improved," Brian Cashman said after Thursday's trade deadline. "We're going to find out if it's enough or not."
Mets fans were forewarned: don't expect much, if anything, on July 31. And that's exactly what was -- or wasn't -- there, but probably for the right reasons, and likely with the right intentions.
In the end, the Mets would have had to pay too much to get needed upgrades. So went the rationale of general manager Sandy Alderson after the non-waiver trade deadline came and went without the Mets doing anything to improve their roster.
Will the Yanks shake things up? Maybe, but don't expect a blockbuster. So far, GM Brian Cashman -- no stranger to wheeling and dealing -- hasn't been linked to anyone of the big-splash variety.
"I had heard he was coming to the stadium, but I didn't know he was going on the field," Jeter said after his final game in Arlington. "That's a pretty special feeling"
A super human shortstop, no Derek Jeter, we're not talking about you.
It's looking like there won't be any major moves in Flushing. At least not ahead of the July 31 deadline.
The 86-year-old Bronx native's consecutive years of service make him the longest-tenured broadcaster with one team in sports history.
Yankees manager Joe Girardi thinks most players have power. They just have to "learn how to use it better." Brett Gardner must have been taking notes.
As far as what teams are looking for from the Mets when it comes to trade talk, I think we can all spell this together: an eight-letter word that begins with "P."
Jeter remembers the playoff games in Texas -- the good and the bad. Now the Yankees captain has another milestone to go with them there.
Monday's starter, Bartolo Colon, might be the most attractive trade bait. But Sandy Alderson suggested the veteran may be an even more valuable asset in the offseason.
"But this being Yankees-Red Sox, I started razzing him. I told him he wasn't getting it so easily. I was playing with him, a lot," Manhattan restaurant owner Luigi Militello said.
