Mets.com: Masters of chaos, gritty Mets never 'flinched'. The Mets lost three leads but erased multiple deficits en route to one of their wildest, wackiest wins of the season: a 15-11, 11-inning victory over the Reds at Great American Ball Park. In a game that featured seven Mets homers, multiple blown saves and nearly five hours of baseball, New York finally sealed things with a five-run rally in the 11th.

Mets.com: Stat of Day: Back-to-back into record books. “The Mets on Monday became the second team in AL/NL history to hit back-to-back homers in both the first inning and extra innings of the same game, joining the 1950 Pirates in accomplishing that feat. Pete Alonso and Jeff McNeil went back-to-back in the first inning of New York's 15-11 win over the Reds, before Kevin Pillar and Michael Conforto did the same in the 11th.”























SNY.TV: What's next? The Mets have still not announced a starter for their game on Tuesday against the Reds at 7:10 p.m. on SNY. Wade Miley (7-4, 2.80 ERA) will pitch for Cincinnati.


Mets.com: Mets skipper Rojas suspended 2 games. “Mets manager Luis Rojas has been suspended two games for what Major League Baseball deemed “excessive arguing” during the first inning of Sunday’s 7-6 comeback win over the Pirates.”

NY Post: The Mets need to make a trade for Kris Bryant. “This is about now. The Mets haven’t won a postseason game since the 2015 World Series, and if Bryant can handle the pressure of helping the Cubs win their historic title, he can handle the pressure of helping a New York team return to the playoffs for the first time in five years.”

New York Mets sold Omar Quintanilla to the Baltimore Orioles on July 20, 2012.

Baseball Reference:

1965: Seven is a lucky number for the Braves as they score seven runs in the 7th to beat the Mets, 7 - 1. Hank Aaron's two-run homer, off Larry Miller, is the capper on the scoring.

1985: Driving in seven runs on two homers, Darryl Strawberry leads the Mets to a 16 - 4 drubbing of the visiting Braves. Straw's first home run is a grand slam in the 1st inning and his next is a three-run home run in the 4th. The Mets also get homers from Howard Johnson, Danny Heep and Clint Hurdle.

1995 - Mets OF Brett Butler strokes four hits, but it is not enough to prevent an 8 - 6 New York loss to the Cardinals. The hits give Butler 15 for his last four games, one shy of the record of 16 set by Brooklyn's Milt Stock in 1925.

2014 - In his fifth major league start, Odrisamer Despaigne comes within four outs of throwing the first no-hitter in the history of the San Diego Padres. The Mets' Daniel Murphy breaks his bid with a two-out double in the 8th, and David Wright follows with a single that ties the score at 1 - 1, ending Despaigne's day. Joaquin Benoit is the winner after the Padres score in the bottom of the 9th for a 2- 1 win.
