Kick Off the 4th Early Remembering Classic NY Games @ 6pm
By Mike Silva ~ July 2nd, 2009. Filed under: Radio Show.
I am excited about tonight’s lineup.
First, John Strubel of Flushing 9 will talk about an interesting project he is working on: a book about the July 4th, 1985 game between the Mets and Braves. If you remember, the game went 16 innings with the Mets winning 16-13. Between the long game and rain delays it didn’t finish till 4 AM. John and I will remember the game, and I am sure he might have an interesting tidbit or two for Mets fans.
I didn’t forget Yankees fans. NYBD contributor Frank Russo will join us in the back half of the show to remember the classic July 4th, 1983 Dave Righetti no hitter. Hear Frank recant his experience watching the no no and some of his memories from the game. We may also get a nugget from his rumor mill.
