Harper Lee was a Mets fan

With the announcement of a sequel for To Kill A Mockingbird, Harper Lee has made her way back to the forefront of the American conscience. As a fan of the original novel, I, like so many others, am curious to see what the new book will bring.
This article, however, does not focus so much on Lee’s writing as it does on her baseball loyalties. And while I can’t stand by her choice of teams, learning that Harper Lee enjoys baseball certainly brings a little more sunshine into the world.
Rejoice: Harper Lee Is (or Was) a Mets Fan
Glad she likes baseball; but the Mets?

Mmmm, yes, very good question. We may not approve of her choice of teams, but I’m sure she has her reasons. I’m just stoked that she digs baseball.
