Lena & Lenny Twit for tat

- Chris Perez

Lena Dunham found herself in a bizarre Twitter war with former Met Lenny Dykstra on Thursday night, with the actress calling him “revolting” and “a stalker” and the ex-outfielder responding that she has “anger issues.”

The tiff started after Dunham, 31, declared, fresh from a trip to Citi Field, that she is “horny for baseball players.”

Dykstra, 54, responded, “DM me,” short for direct message.

Soon, Dykstra was invit- ing Dunham to view a video clip of his 1986 National League Championsh­ip Series home run against the Houston Astros, to “get the bloodflow going, doll.”

Dunham then tweeted to her 5.6 million followers, “I’m being simultaneo­usly trolled & seduced by @LennyDykst­ra this day has gotten really f--king weird.”

Dykstra responded, “You know deep down you want to take a ride on the space shuttle.”

Dunham responded, “Do you just sit around asking your friends ‘what’s the least witty way I can revolt a woman?’ ”

When Dykstra tweeted that Dunham has “anger issues,” she answered, “It’s so true. I’m mad. Can I borrow your bat.”

Dykstra answered “Any time, my dear” and made a crude comment about bat sizes.

Dunham quipped, “Excited about my new stalker” and ended the exchange, “I’m already asleep, grandpa.”
