Bronx Bomber Ball

When Matt Harvey made his debut for the Mets in 2012 fans around the game were in awe. His strong powerful frame and blazing fastball made the young right hander seem untouchable at times. Harvey, a Connecticut native, grew up a Yankees fan so it didn ’t take long for fans of the team in the Bronx to covet the Queens’ new star. The goal was to wait until Harvey was a free agent and steal him away for the Metropolitans in another move to cement the Yankees dominance over their crosstown foes.    Photo Credit: SI.com
