A pretty good and insightful read. As a Mets fan, I learned a number of new things and got comprehensive stories of things I only knew a little about beforehand. It could read a little rough at points, but it didn’t hinder it too much.

It was good and it was nice to read the recap of some of the games from the last 30-40 years. The only thing I wish he did was do a running total of the victory's from page to page.
