A NEW YORK METS SHOW WITH FRANCHISE ICONS ED KRANEPOOL AND JAY HOOK.
Some hot stove nostalgia with two players who hold distinct places in Mets history.
Kranepool is the longest tenured player in team history, spending his entire 18-year career with Mets, and holds the franchise record for most games played. He’s the only player who was there from the original Amazin’s of Casey Stengel, through the Miracle Mets of ‘69, and the back-from-the-dead pennant winning season of ‘73.
Hook was the very first winning pitcher in Mets history with a complete game five-hitter against the Pittsburgh Pirates after the team lost its first nine games. He shares his memories of Casey, the Polo Grounds, Marvelous Marv Throneberry, and the record-setting losing season of 1962.
