The Mets have finally made it to the World Series again. Somewhere there is a biology book with my teethmarks in it. My parent were asleep when they won it all in 1986 and I couldn’t scream out loud. Or maybe it’s been recycled. Anyway, I figure if there is a Subway Series, some smart-aleck will plot out how to actually get from Shea Stadium to Yankee Stadium via subway (not that you’d actually need to do that). So I decided to do it first. I used an interactive Java applet to determine the route:

Start at Willets Point – Shea Stadium on the Seven diamond.
After 11 stops, get off at Grand Central – Lexington Ave.
Transfer to the Four.
After 5 stops, get off at E 161 St – Yankee Stadium.

This other interactive map gives completely different directions. But it doesn’t need Java.
