Literary birthday greetings: Nails

February 10, 2011

Lenny Dykstra turns 48 today. Along with Davey Johnson and Keith Hernandez, Dykstra was one of those Mets who parlayed his sudden fame following their 1986 World Championship to publish a book (Nails: The Inside Story of an Amazin’ Season, written with Marty Noble). At the time, I remember thinking how vulgar the language was. Now, that perception seems to be the least of his worries.
