Biography: sport; Baseball; Travel & holiday

A love letter to New York Mets fandom-the triumphs, the heartbreak, and everything in between

Childhood for Evan Roberts was defined by outings to the old Shea Stadium with his father, always with a scorebook in hand.

What began as a gameday ritual replete with misspelled player names and scrawled symbols turned into an obsession with scoring every game he watched, one which persisted as Roberts rose through the ranks at WFAN. Taken together, those scorebooks form a living, breathing Mets diary spanning 30 years of thrilling-and, at times, tortured-fandom.

My Baseball Bible is an exercise in memory and nostalgia, and a meditation on the things that stick with us as sports fans. With his personal scorecards as a guide, Roberts brings to life some of the most unforgettable moments in Mets lore, offering a fresh perspective on the highs and lows of being a die-hard fan.

Meticulously kept history mixes with personal recollections and behind-the-scenes anecdotes covering touchstone events such as Johan Santana's no-hitter, Robin Ventura's grand slam ""single"", and the loss that Roberts has never quite gotten over.

By turns heartfelt and hilarious, Roberts delivers a thrilling and wholly unique journey through modern Mets history.
