Wesley Noreen Westrum took over as the Mets manger in late August of 1965. He managed the team in 1966 and then left the team with eleven games left in the 1967 season.
He was a long time New York Giants catcher who was well regarded for his defense. One another great attribute of Westrum was his sense of humor. He has provided many a funny quote over the years baseballquotations.com
Today's Mets Birthday Quote of the day is a classic baseball quote from Westrum
"Baseball is like church. Many attend but few understand."
