Comedian Rock joins Seinfeld on Cespedes bandwagon
Since coming over from Detroit in a deadline deal, Yoenis Cespedes has carried the Mets in the NL East.
Not only is the outfielder gaining support for the league's MVP award, but he's become a hit with two of the funniest men on the planet.
Jerry Seinfeld instantly became a Cespedes fan.
Dear @ynscspds, Wow! What a night! CONGRATULATIONS! My whole family loves you. I like that you have great style on routine plays as well.

Jerry has even offered the slugger, who is a free agent after the season, contract advice.
Dear @ynscspds, You're in the green parakeet seat now! I think you can charge @Mets for each underhand throwback. #theycantwin #youcantlose

On Wednesday, after Cespedes snapped a tie against Washington with a two-run homer in the eighth inning, Chris Rock couldn't contain his excitement over Cespedes' heroics.
