Saying that it was truly sinking in that he had finally made it to the big leagues, New York Mets rookie Carson Benge told reporters Friday he still couldn’t believe the sunflower seeds in the dugout were free. “It’s honestly insane—you can just take them. As many as you want. Nobody says a word, even if you grab the flavored ones,” said the first-year outfielder, shaking his head in disbelief as he stuffed several fistfuls of ranch-flavored seeds into his uniform pockets and marveled that “these would’ve cost six or seven bucks at the gas station.”

Rookie day!!
