Mets Tickets - Shea Stadium
Mets tickets have become hot with Johan Santana, Jose Reyes and David Wright leading the way. 2007 season was not good for the New York Mets but there is no reason to believe that 2008 would be the same. In fact with changes made, fans can look forward to a great season from the Mets. After losing to the Philadelphia Phillies, who went on to win the National League East Division title, the Mets focussed on building their team for a great 2008 season. Mets’ manager signed up Johan Santana, who along with Pedro Martinez will definitely strengthen the team. Jose Reyes is another plus point for the New York Mets. David Wright is also good player who is expected to perform well in this season. Carlos Beltran, Moises Alou, Carlos Delgado and Ryan Church are some of the other players who are expected to live up to their names in the coming season. The New York Mets were formed in 1962. The first season was terrible for the Mets, who posted a 40-120 record. Casey Stengel, who had led the New York Yankees to seven World Series championships in the 40s and 50s, was the first manager for the Mets. First seven seasons were very bad for the Mets and a disappointment for the fans who had bought Mets tickets. In 1965, the Mets moved to the Shea Stadium. Stengel was finally replaced with Hodges in 1968. He brought in young and talented pitching staff to the Mets. Jerry Koosman, Nolan Ryan, Tom Seaver and Tug McGraw were some of the star players for the Mets. In 1968, the Mets went on to win the East Division title. Then they went on to defeat the Baltimore to win the World Series. Fans with Mets tickets were delighted. In 1972, Hodges died of a heart attack. Yogi Berra took over as manager of New York Mets. 1973 season was another great season for the Mets. They got the first place in the East Division. Tom Seaver got his second Cy Young Award. Then they won the NL pennant after defeating Cincinnati Reds. The Mets met the Oakland Athletics in the World Series. However, they lost the series. In 1986, the Mets really made their fans happy. They won 108 games and their third NL pennant. Gary Carter and Hernandez powered their team to another World Series championship. They defeated Boston Red Sox to take on the World Series title. In 2000, Mets again reached the World Series to be only defeated by the New York Yankees. Fans who want to watch the Mets at their home ground would need to buy Mets tickets for the Shea Stadium. This will be the last season for the Shea Stadium because in 2009 Mets would move to their new home ground, Citi Field.
