Can you guess the most memorable sports moments to happen in the Big Apple? Collected together for the first time, The Twenty Greatest Moments in New York Sports History chronicles the most memorable sporting events to be held in New York, ranking them based on importance and effect on the sport (and city). Broken down into four parts, each event will include the storyline that led up to the moment, original materials from the media coverage of the event, a column from a local journalist to lend perspective, and finally first-person accounts from the men and women that made these moments happen. Veteran journalists Todd Ehrlich and Elliot Kalb dive deep into each of these moments, sharing why they are so special and the reason we still talk about them today. Including original interviews and information previously unreleased, The Twenty Greatest Moments in New York Sports History is not only for the New York sports fan, but anyone who appreciates the amazing effect that baseball, basketball, football, hockey, tennis, golf, boxing, and numerous other sports can have on our cities and country as a whole. So. . . which event will be at the top? Could it be Willie Mays' s catch in the 1954 World Series? Willis Reed hobbling back into the game against the Lakers in game seven of the 1970 NBA Finals? Tiger Woods dominating on Bethpage' s "Black Course" to win the 2002 US Open? Or perhaps the bout at Madison Square Garden between Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier? There' s only one way to find out!
