According to The Sporting News, May 13, 1978, the Mets were planning on bringing Bill Greif up from Tidewater to get some action in the now-extinct Yankee/Met exhibition game to be held on April 27. I've tried unsuccessfully to see whether he actually was called up and active for the game, or whether he even might have played. I know it was only an exhibition, but for my 1978 project I would still like to include him if he did suit up, maybe with an asterisk. Does anyone out there know whether he was called to big club and whether he played? A box score would be appreciated as well. Thanks!
