Mays explained to Niss that since the last game in Montreal, 2 days earlier, he had been suffering from sore ribs sustained during his 1st inning crash into the metal railing in front of the Mets dugout as he valiantly chased a pop foul ball. As I reported in my last article, Mays had taken 2 full minutes on field to recover. He then played the rest of the game and actually reached base twice, 1 of only 2 Mets to do so. The 1980s brought continued musical success. Nelson’s ballad "Always on My Mind" won the Grammy Award for Best Country Vocal Performance in 1982, and the album of the same name topped both the country and pop charts. Though Tougher Than Leather (1983), Without a Song (1984) and City of New Orleans (1984), did not prove to be crossover hits, all three still reached the top of the country charts. Nelson teamed up with Julio Iglesias for the ballad "To All the Girls I've Loved Before" (1982), a massive international success. The Highwaymen Country singer and songwriter Willie Nelson rose to prominence at the end of the 1960s and contributed to the "outlaw country" subgenre, which challenged the music industry conservatism of Nashville at the time. During his lengthy, award-winning career, he has written some of the most popular and memorable country songs of all time, many of which have been covered by a wide range of artists over the last half-century. Now in his 80s, Nelson continues to record, tour and devote time to charitable and political causes. Early Life Staub, is having a tough year as his hands have been hurting all season after he missed most of last year with a broken bone in his hand. He came into the game with a line of just 12 HRs / 62 RBIs / .266 average. At 29 years old, and in his prime, these numbers, for the 5-time all-star slugger, are disappointing compared to his 3 seasons prior to joining the Mets in which he was generally good for 25 HRs / 90 RBIs / .300.

After signing a new record deal with Legacy Recordings, in 2012 Nelson released the album Heroes, which featured appearances by Merle Haggard, Snoop, Kristofferson and Sheryl Crow, among others. It reached No. 4 country and No. 18 pop, his highest-charting effort since “Always on My Mind.” That same year, the Country Music Association honored Nelson with an all-star tribute at the CMAs in Nashville. Nelson starred as the titular role of the Red Headed Stranger, the 1986 western drama film based on his 1975 album of the same name. He would later go on to appear in films such as The Dukes of Hazzard (2005), Blonde Ambition (2007), Beer for My Horses (2008) and Zoolander 2 (2016).
