Meet the Real Mr. Met - Jay Horwitz
Ultimate Storyteller, Beloved by Generations of Players & Fans
Overcoming a serious childhood disability, Jay Horwitz has been a beloved friend of the ballplayers and their families for four decades. From Gooden and Strawberry to Seaver and DeGrom, they all sang his praises and cherished the memories. He was always their
advocate or buffer when they had highs and lows on and off the field. Writers also found him fair but his family of athletes knew where he stood at all times. In other words, Jay always had their back! He'll share his exciting life living out his childhood dream.
You won't want to miss his unique insider's perspective.
