I was doing one of my occasional office clean-ups yesterday when I came across a DVD of the Yankee Fantasy Camp I attended in 2009 as an embedded journalist when I was with the New Jersey Jewish News in 2009 — back when I had hair! The reason it was “newsworthy” was because it was the […]
This time, it’s personal. Jerry Koosman, one of the “Miracle Mets” of my youth, died on Sunday at his home in Osceola, Wis. He was 83. He made his debut in 1967 (0-2) but the following year enjoyed the Mets’ best pitching record to date, going 19-12 to finish second in NL Rookie of the […]
