Former Mets infielder Ray Knight was arrested at 4 a.m. Sunday morning after an altercation with a 33-year-old at his Virginia home, FOX5 DC reported.
Knight, 64, and the younger man both suffered visible injuries and were taken to the hospital. Knight was charged with assault and battery.
Knight is remembered in Mets lore for his role in helping the team come back from a 3-2 deficit in the 1986 World Series. Knight singled and scored the game-winning run on Mookie Wilson’s grounder in the 10th inning of Game 6 and hit the go-ahead home run in Game 7.
