Although it wasn’t an actual call, just a notification, Hernandez apologized, dealt with it with by being pretty funny, until a few seconds later, when his phone went off again. Oops.
Still to this day whenever I think of Keith Hernandez, I immediately think Seinfeld. That episode was an instant classic. Watch below to get a little taste. One of the best episodes of all time. Good think for him, I don’t think they even had cell phones back then.
