 
Faith and Fear in Flushing made its debut on Feb. 16, 2005, the brainchild of two longtime friends and lifelong Met fans. Greg Prince discovered the Mets when he was 6, during the magical summer of 1969. He is a Long Island-based writer, editor and communications consultant. Contact him here. 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?

If you somehow can't make it tonight's meeting of the Mets History Miniature Bobblehead Year at Citi Field committee…I mean to seeing Jason and me at Varsity Letters (for real), here a few other things you can be doing with your Thursday evening. • You can listen, if you haven't yet, to NY Baseball Digest's Mike […] Thanks to Jason for issuing such a warm invitation to Varsity Letters (Thursday night, 8 PM, details and directions here) as well as for offering a relatively objective review. Thanks to all, really, who have made these first few weeks as a published Mets author so inviting. Your support is as uplifting as it is […] Sports Illustrated just picked us to win the World Series, yet failed to place David Wright prominently on its cover. Perhaps we should be grateful that the mythic jinx has been averted, though SI granted Diamond Dave an upper right corner snipe (CC Sabathia took up most of the rest of the space…which is a true-to-life […] I like this week, the week when Spring Training winds down. It's not next week, the week when the season begins and we forget this week, but I always enjoy the Baseball Eve feeling that breezes in right around now. It's the last ten minutes of eighth period before the bell rings, the Sunrise Highway […] I loved this patio from the first time I saw it in 2007. It was built by the First Family of Mets Fandom, the Chapmans of Central Jersey, to accommodate Wiffle Ball, the sport of kings and Mets Guys everywhere. The hard infield made Baltimore chops a specialty. The outfield fence marked 69 feet from home plate. […] As someone who grew up subject to my father's AM audio leanings, I can't think of too many things that sound classier than a traditional radio talk show from an outstanding restaurant. No kidding. Puts me in mind of Barry Gray, of Bill Mazer and now of Mark Healey, host of Baseball Digest Live, broadcast […] The phone rang at my desk on May 22, 1998. I didn’t recognize the voice. “Hi,” someone said. “You’re gonna have Mike Piazza on the Mets, but he might or might not use some substances that aren’t exactly on the up and up to keep his performance at the extraordinary level it’s been since he’s been […] Let the celebration commence: the last of the at-large Mets are coming home from their baseman’s holiday, a.k.a. the World Baseball Classic. They can get back to being the team they’re paid to be, the one we’ll care about in two weeks when whatever happened in the WBC is tucked away in memory’s recesses for […] “So,” Jason asked me Friday. “Have you been in the wilds yet?” His way of asking had I been to a book store so I could view my merchandise in its natural selling habitat. Not yet, I said, but I'm headed there. Good timing had me abandoning my hermit-ish existence and meeting some former colleagues Friday night […] Not much of a picture, but a pretty pleasing sight to this first-time author. From the baseball section at the Carle Place Barnes & Noble on Old Country Road, Saturday night. There was also another nice stack on a display table. Great to see them on the shelves. Will be even greater when they’re flying off. Faith and […] |
