The TRUE STORY Behind Roger McDowell's Hot Foot Prank | 1986 Mets Stories ft Author Doug Feldmann

Roger McDowell and co-author Doug Feldmann join Jay Horwitz to unpack HOTFOOT — from the Mets’ legendary prank wars (including the infamous Bill Robinson hotfoot) to the pressure of NLCS Game 6 in Houston, Davey Johnson’s player-first leadership, and the wild Cincinnati brawl that had relievers playing the outfield. It’s the ’86 Mets through stories, strategy, and pure clubhouse chaos — told by the guys who lived it. 🧩 Key Themes Why they titled the book HOTFOOT + the elaborate prank on Bill Robinson (with a TV director and Pete Rose watching). NLCS Game 6 in Houston — McDowell’s five shutout innings to avoid facing Mike Scott in a Game 7. Davey Johnson’s leadership style — roles, platoons, and trusting veterans to run the room. The July ’86 Cincinnati brawl — Eric Davis vs. Ray Knight, relievers in the outfield, and Pete Rose’s protest. Clubhouse stories: Kevin Mitchell’s “custom” suit, Keith Hernandez’s defensive genius. Book release with Triumph Books, timed for the Mets’ 40-year anniversary celebration. ⏱️ Timestamped Chapters 00:00 HOTFOOT origins & picking targets (Bill Robinson + TV director) 02:21 Why the title “HOTFOOT” & the timing of the book 03:26 How McDowell & Feldmann teamed up (after ’87 Cardinals research) 08:00 NLCS Game 6: five shutout innings to save the season 10:49 Five pitchers over 16 innings — unheard of today 13:09 “Dominant from Day 1”: targets on backs but a team of roles 14:24 Davey Johnson: the original analytics mind & player’s manager 16:31 1985 trust moment: post-surgery Roger goes 127 IP out of the pen 17:15 Doc Gooden precedent: Davey vs. front office on trusting the room 18:31 Teammate tales: Kevin Mitchell’s suit story in San Diego 19:56 Bullpen roles with Orosco & Sisk — why it worked 22:17 Sid Fernandez lesson: pulling him mid-AB to reinforce command 27:04 Cincinnati ’86 brawl: relievers in the outfield & Pete Rose protest 29:40 Keith Hernandez’s defense — instinct and anticipation masterclass 33:18 The cover, the fire & the “serious between the lines” Roger McDowell / Check out http://m.mlb.com/video for our full archive of videos, and subscribe on YouTube for the best, exclusive MLB content:    / mlb   About MLB.com: Commissioner Allan H.
