Title: Every Met Fan Should Read This Book...
Review: An excellent overview of the 1986 World Series champion New York Mets baseball team by first baseman and first-time author Keith Hernandez. He describes in detail the entire season, breaking it down game by game, citing the intricacies of each contest, leading to either victory or defeat. Hernandez also tells of personal happenings of his teammates, (i.e: young pitching phenom Dwight Gooden, and how he was able to manhandle each team he faced, and how he handled his newfound success emotionally.)and how Keith corrected himself during slumps. He also writes of how his good friend, Ed Lynch was traded away from the playoff contention Mets to the dismal Chicago Cubs. (which was especially traumatic for Lynch.) Information like this makes "If at First..." an excellent look at the grueling physical and emotional taxes pro athletes must endure.
