New Mets manager Buck Showalter takes a timeout during spring training to take a swing at some Q&A with Post columnist Steve Serby.A: Try not to get too nostalgic. A lot people counting on us.

I think because they had different seasons you could play baseball where you had Little League, you had summer ball. I was pretty good at it, and I enjoyed winning.
