Turk Wendell, former major league baseball pitcher, hands his New York Mets shirt to U.S. Army Sgt. Michael Lloyd, from Queens, N.Y., at Camp As Sayliyah, Qatar, March 21. "He gave me his Mets shirt because I am a die-hard fan," said Lloyd. Wendell is well recognized by Mets fans, due to his friendly personality and frequent antics. He traveled overseas to show support for the U.S. military in the Middle East with four other former major baseball players: Chris Hammond, Jimmy Anderson, Steve Karsay and Dan Wilson. "Even big stars are taking time to meet the average Soldier," said Wendell.
