HERE IS WHAT OTHER METS FANS HAVE TO SAY:

I think the Mets acquired Charlie Neal from the Dodgers for Lee Walls. He played for the Brooklyn Dodgers. I recall he wore number 4 with the Mets. He had some injuries with the Dodgers but was as steady a player as one could find on the 62 Mets.

Dick Schaap said that with the Dodgers, Neal was "quick, exciting and able." With the Mets, he was "quick and exciting." Two out of three weren't bad.

I am sorry to hear of his passing.

I have vague memories of reading somewhere that Neal seemingly lost all of his defensive ability at once thus making it expedient for the Dodgers to expose him too the expansion draft.

Is there anyone out there who can confirm whether this is the same Charlie Neal who reported sports on BET?

Charlie's passing was a result of heart failure, according to his obit in the New York Times. Although he is not listed in my Negro Leagues encyclopedia, there are accounts on the Net suggesting that he played there briefly in 1955. The other Met vet of the Negro Leagues was apparently Choo Choo Coleman.

Is this the Charlie Neal who had a sports show on BET around 89-91?
