Amazin’ Avenue Audio, Episode 315: Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five with Chris Donnelly

Welcome back to Amazin’ Avenue Audio, where we discuss Doc, Keith, and more.

This week, Brian Salvatore is joined by author Chris Donnelly, who discusses his new book Doc, Donnie, The Kid, and Billy Brawl: How the 1985 Mets and Yankees Fought for New York’s Baseball Soul. We talk about the similarities between George Steinbrenner and a certain US president, the absolutely insane Doc Gooden season, and the overall tenor of the Mets vs Yankees rivalry.

You can also read an article Chris wrote that somewhat touches on the Steinbrenner chat we had.
