Editor reviews

The New York Mets have experienced over 50 years of successes and failures, and veteran baseball author Bruce Markusen relives some of their most important moments. Golden Earphones Award recipient Tom Parks lends his vibrant performance to the stories that range from the team's rough start in the early 1960s, their struggles as a team of highly-paid underachievers in the '80s and '90s, to their recovery in the 2000s. Parks's expressiveness will help listeners get into the mood of the anecdotes, whether they're about dramatic sports moments or little-known, personal stories about the players.
