Ron Swoboda, former Mets outfielder, whose key plays helped the team win the 1969 World Series, now a play-by-play commentator in New Orleans and the author of Here's the Catch: A Memoir of the Miracle Mets and More (Thomas Dunne Books, 2019) and Art Shamsky, a Major League baseball player for eight years, part of the World Championship team in 1969, former broadcaster for WNEW and author of After the Miracle: The Lasting Brotherhood of the '69 Mets (Simon and Schuster, 2019), remember the glory days of the New York Mets.
.@BrianLehrer proves why he is the best at talking sports and interview athletes on NYC radio. As much as I am tired of hearing about the '69 Mets, he made his interview with Ron Swoboda and Art Shamsky a lot of fun.
