Mets Links: 

Braves 3 Mets 0 (Box Score) Jeff McNeil 2B 0 for 3, 2 Ks; Francisco Lindor SS 0 for 4, 1 K;  James McCann C 1 for 4, 2 Ks; Kevin Pillar LF 0 for 4, 3 Ks; Marcus Stroman P (Out after 1 inning- left hip soreness) – 1 inning, no runs, no hits, 2 walks; Yennsy Diaz 2 innings, 3 runs – all earned, 3 hits, 1 HR, 2 walks, 3 Ks; Drew Smith 2 innings, no runs, no hits, 1 walk, 3 Ks; Aaron Loup 3 innings, no runs, 1 hit, 4 Ks; Trevor May 1 inning, no runs, no hits, 2 Ks; 

SNY.TV: Mets' Marcus Stroman exits Tuesday's game with left hip soreness, will be reevaluated Wednesday, Right-hander left the game after just 21 pitches.

Mets.com: “The latest problem revolves around Stroman, who felt he hyperextended his hip on a pitch in the second inning and struggled to get the joint loose after that. Stroman, whom the Mets did not make available to speak after the game, was scheduled to undergo additional testing on Wednesday that should determine the severity of his injury.”

NY Post.com: “The Mets’ offense offered little help. It did not have a base runner until the fourth inning, when Morton hit Jeff McNeil and walked Billy McKinney. It did not have a hit until the fifth inning, when Eickhoff delivered his pinch-hit roller of a single.”

SNY.TV: Stroman leaves early, Mets muster two hits in 3-0 loss to Braves. 

Mets.com: Stat of the day: “Since busting out for 14 runs against Matt Harvey and the Orioles on June 9, the Mets have averaged 2.6 runs per game in 14 contests. That's 29th in MLB over that stretch, and a full run less than their season average of 3.6 runs per game (which is also 29th in the Majors, ahead of only the Pirates). Over their last eight games, the Mets have been even less productive, averaging 1.6 runs per night.”

Mets.com: Conforto on way back from injured list. Return pushed to Wednesday as precaution after a Syracuse player has a positive COVID test.

SNY.tv: Mets planning to be cautious with Michael Conforto when he returns to lineup. Outfielder expected to be activated after suffering hamstring strain on May 16

SNY.com: Mets open to trading for 'stabilizer' or impact pitcher, says Zack Scott: 'I'm on the phone a lot'. 'We're still looking at a market that the prices tend to be pretty high until you get close to that deadline'.

SNY.TV: Prospect Tylor Megill gets opportunity to start for Mets on Wednesday. With Marcus Stroman leaving Tuesday's start early, the Mets have more pitching questions.

Braves (34-37) @ Mets (37-30), 7:10 pm

NYM: Tylor Megill (25, RHP, MLB Debut)
ATL: Kyle Wright (#30, 25, RHP, 0-0, 4.15)

The Brooklyn Trolley Blogger: Brooklyn Cyclones: Jersey Shore Triumphant In First Ever Visit To Coney Island. BlueClaws Bullpen Stops Brooklyn Comeback Cold In Its Tracks. “Francisco Alvarez leaves the game (leg) and is replaced behind the plate by Juan Uriarte as they head into the fifth.  Perhaps asking your backstop who is built like a Mack truck to catch in 72% humidity (as I listen in from nearby Bensonhurst), leg out a double, then race from second to home was a bit much on the legs.  The announcers were sticking to a precautionary, and proactive explanation, but they did mention he was limping in the dugout.  Put that through the translator.  Otherwise, I hope it was just cramps.  Stay tuned ...”


St. Lucie Mets Game postponed Tuesday. The game will be made up as part of a doubleheader on Wednesday. Game 1 will begin at 12 p.m.

New York Mets signed free agent Jerry Morales on June 23, 1966.

1963

After taking Phillies right-hander Dallas Green deep, Jimmy Piersall runs around the bases in the correct order, but backward, to celebrate his 100th career home run. The Mets' outfielder, who thought of the stunt after being disappointed by the lack of attention Duke Snider's 400th round-tripper received, will be released two days later by manager Casey Stengel.

2006

The Mets, defeating the Blue Jays at the Rogers Centre, 6-1, set a club record, winning their ninth straight decision on the road. The team had won their eight decisions on a ten-game road trip, including stops in Los Angeles, Arizona, and Philadelphia.

 

2008

In an interleague contest against the Mets at Shea Stadium, Mariners' right-hander Felix Hernandez becomes the first pitcher in the 31-year history of the franchise to hit a home run. The round-tripper, which comes off fellow Venezuela ace Johan Santana, is also the first grand slam hit by an American League pitcher since Steve Dunning of the Indians homered off A's moundsman Diego Segui in 1971.

 

Baseball Reference:

2000: The Mets roll over the Pirates, 12 - 2, scoring nine runs in the 3rd inning.

2019: Tensions boil over in the clubhouse of the struggling Mets after a 5 - 3 loss to the Cubs at Wrigley Field as manager Mickey Callaway accuses Newsday beat reporter Tim Healey of antagonizing people. The exchange quickly degenerates as P Jason Vargas also gets involved and threatens to knock out the journalist while Callaway shouts for him to leave the clubhouse, using choice profanities.

Mack’s Blast from the Past: 6/23/2013: Mack reprinted his 2008 Prospect list with Fernando Martinez at #1; Wilmer Flores #2; Jonathan Niese #3; Eddie Kunz #4; Daniel Murphy #5.
