Check it out…
Via TMZ:
Turns out … THEY’RE NOT REAL METS!!!!
…We HAD to know who the ballsy Mets players were who would dare to honor a Yankee.
But after some serious digging … we learned it ain’t David Wright … or Curtis Granderson .. or Daniel Murphy. None of ’em. In fact, the guys behind the blurs aren’t even ball-players.
THEY’RE ACTORS! We confirmed it with Jordan Brand … the company behind the commercial.
There is one authentic person in that particular scene — Jordan Brand confirmed that the REAL Mr. Met DID participate in the spot.
