They were coming off a seemingly endless string of losing records.
They were considered years away from legitimate contention. They
were derided and disregarded as a matter of course. But in 2015 the
New York Mets changed their course and changed their story. The
result was the best kind of amazin'. Against all expectations,
these Mets surged from the starting gate, hung tough when adversity
threatened to overwhelm their budding chances, and fortified
themselves for a stretch drive few could have foreseen. In short
order, they proceeded to capture a division title, raise a pennant,
and lay claim to the heart of their city. With an unforgettable
cast of characters including Matt Harvey, David Wright, Jacob
deGrom, Yoenis Cespedes, and Daniel Murphy, the tale of the 2015
National League champion New York Mets is told for the ages in
Amazin' Again. Author Greg Prince cocreator of Faith and Fear in
Flushing, the blog that has distilled the heart and soul of Mets
fandom for more than a decade traces the trajectory of this
championship season, from its roots in a long-ago amateur draft to
its climax within the cauldron of Citi Field's first World Series.
In between, Prince re-creates the emotions of a year that
culminated in the Mets making New York their kind of town once
again. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Sports Publishing
