Today, February 29, 2008, Johan Santana will make his first appearance in a New York Mets uniform to face another teams batters.
It's a 1:10 p.m. game, with the St. Louis Cardinals traveling to Port St. Lucie to take on the Mets at Tradition Field. That leaves us with just about four and a half hours of waiting to see that first walk out to the mound and hear the cheers and claps from all the lucky fans down in PSL.
The game will be televised on SNY.
