Description: The Mets signed Lenny Dykstra as a 13th round draft pick in 1981. In 1985 Dykstra, deemed ready for the major leagues, was promoted to the Mets. The rookie's play and energy were a big boost to a Mets team that surged to a 98-win season and narrowly missed out on the NL East crown. Mets fans soon nicknamed Dykstra "Nails" for his hard-nosed personality and fearless play. In 1986, he even posed shirtless for a "beefcake" poster under the "Nails" nickname. Dykstra and #2 hitter Wally Backman were termed "the Wild Boys" for their scrappy play as spark plugs for the star-studded Met lineup. Lenny Dykstra has hand signed this Franklin New York Mets Logo Baseball w/ #4 Nails inscription. JSA Authentication Sticker #RR76574 and JSA Certificate of Authenticity.
