5.0 out of 5 stars
Very good adn real entertaining.,
By Michael J Woznicki "Michael J Woznicki" (Holland, MA USA) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Piazza (Hardcover)
What team was averaging 18,100 fans before his arrival and after his arrival over 35,000? The New York Mets and the person to whom this attendance-doubling feat goes to is Mike Piazza. Watching the way the Mets have performed since his arrival is one of the reasons they are one of the top ball teams in the National League.Since his arrival in New York, Piazza has taken his team from mediocre to the NLCS and nearly pulled off one the biggest upset in baseball. Piazza abilities behind the plate are as impressive as his interaction the fans of New York outside the gates. Over 125 pages packed with stories and photos, this is one book for every serious Mets or Piazza fan. The book only covers Mike's time in New York, so if you are looking for the definitive biography this is not he book. Price under $25.00 this book is certainly a good value for the money.
5.0 out of 5 stars
