About
In the more than sixty-year history of the New York Mets, fans have been treated to countless firsts: the first Met pitcher to record a win at Shea Stadium (Al Jackson), the first Met to hit a homer at Citi Field (David Wright), the first Cy Young Award winner for the Mets (Tom Seaver), the first Met to pitch a no-hitter (Johan Santana), and the first to appear in an All-Star Game in a Mets uniform (Richie Ashburn). The list goes on.
In New York Mets Firsts, Brett Topel presents the stories behind the firsts in Mets history in question-and-answer format. More than a mere trivia book, Topel's collection includes substantive answers to the question of "Who was the first...?" on a variety of topics, many of which will surprise even seasoned fans of the Amazin's.
