The Mets deserve credit for producing some interesting and winning
baseball at the beginning of the season (5-1 now, I think).  Cheers for
Oquindo, Bachman and the young, unheard-of pitching staff.  But Shay is
the worst armpit every produced for a ballgame: utterly filthy and
dangerous!  I don't think anyone could watch a full World Series there
without coming down with a fatal social disease.
