Скачать или смотреть Episode 4 - Galaxy Defender | Bernard Gilkey

Welcome to Episode 4 of The Hall of Mid, where we honor baseball’s most unforgettable mids. Today, we spotlight Bernard Gilkey—a man who turned heads with a monster 1996 season for the New York Mets, and then literally took a fly ball to the head in a cameo role, in the Men in Black movie.

Gilkey’s career spanned the St. Louis Cardinals, Mets, Red Sox, Braves, and Diamondbacks. He hit over .300 in multiple seasons, swiped bases, cracked doubles—and in '96, he raked:
➡️ .317 AVG
➡️ 30 HR
➡️ 117 RBI
➡️ 44 2Bs
➡️ 18 SBs

That earned him MVP votes... and a quick moment of movie history.

This episode tells his story—from dependable outfielder to sci-fi side character, to a respected mentor giving back to the game. Gilkey’s journey is a reminder that greatness doesn’t always end up in Cooperstown.
