Jason Fry is a Brooklyn writer whose first memories include his mom leaping up and down cheering for Rusty Staub. Check out his other writing here. Got something to say?

It was fantastic because I awoke to the sound of David Wright playing, David Wright batting and David Wright going way deeper than I’d been sleeping. No, Howie and Josh assured me, I wasn’t dreaming. David was not on the DL, despite what everybody and his Twitter account […] Perhaps only somebody who has spent the past fifteen months immersed in every box score of every game the Mets have ever won can truly appreciate the absurdity of absolutist statements along the lines of, “The Mets have never done anything like this!” The Mets have absolutely done things like what they’re doing during this Interleague […] 7 comments - (Comments closed) | | Print This Post | 1990 Mets, 2005 Mets, 2006 Mets, 2011 Mets, Angel Pagan, Hitting, Hot Streaks, Ronny Paulino, Team History |
