About this book

The New York Mets were immediately faced with losing records at the start of the franchise in 1962, making the first seven seasons a slow start. The 1969 season gave the team the nickname the “Miracle Mets” after winning 38 of their last 49 games to clinch the NL East Division. The Mets then went on to defeat the much-favored Atlanta Braves in the Championship series and reigned victorious 4-1 against the Baltimore Orioles. Their second and latest World Series title emerged in 1986 after defeating the Red Sox 4-3, after being within one strike of losing the entire season in Game 6. 

This book featiures the 2000 and 2015 National League Championships, the 2006 East Division wins, as well as 2012’s coverage of Johan Santana’s no-hitter against the St Louis Cardinals.

With genuine newspaper articles taken from the New York Daily News, you can see how the team’s biggest events were reported at the time by the reporters who witnessed the games.

Are the pages real, or reproductions of newspapers?

The pages are scans of original newspaper pages. Every effort has been made to clean up scans to make them as clear as possible. In some instances there will be blemishes and the reproduction quality may not be as clear or precise as copying directly from the actual papers itself.
