7TH INNING STRETCH


Ok summer is upon us, and even diehard Mets fans take a break and open 
a book. From time to time I will be recommending books. In particular, 
works that delve into Mets history, and not just on the Glory Years. The fans born after the '70's, know little about what came before.

My first recommendation has to be Amazin' by Peter Golenbock. It 
covers the team from its inception....the politcal haggling involved 
in bringing National League baseball back to New York, the colorful 
characters on the early Mets, and anecdotal remarks and recollections 
from the players. Memories that capture the spirit of METventure!
