"It's what it's all about. The team just grinding at-bats out."

Metstradamus: "But this team has all the hallmarks of a truly legit team. And if the Braves are truly having a World Series hangover, the Mets have a chance … probably their only chance … to run away and hide."
Brian Joura Mets360: "Last year the Giants were 5-1 against the Mets, winning three games by one run and another by two. Tuesday night the Mets flipped the switch, taking the opener, 5-4, and the nightcap, 3-1. The doubleheader sweep runs the Mets’ record to 9-3 on the season."

Three Leiters already have pitched in the majors and a 4th is on the way. You can hear it in @AlLeiter22's voice how proud he is. When Jack Leiter does make it to the bigs it will set a mark that’s never been done before.

Born
April 20:
- Masato Yoshii (1965)
- Jason Roach (1976)
- Sean Green (1979)
|
1967 |
Tom Seaver, a right-hander the
Mets obtained in a lottery drawing that included the Braves, Phillies, and
Indians, gets his first major-league win when the team beat the Cubs, 6-1.
The 22 year-old rookie, who will become known as the 'Franchise,' goes 7.2
innings, giving up eight hits and one run in the Shea Stadium contest. |
|
1997 |
In the second game of a
doubleheader, the Cubs stop their season-opening losing skid at 14 games,
beating the Mets, 4-3. By losing the opener, Chicago set a National League
record (0-14) for the most consecutive losses to start a season and has the
second-worst record behind the Orioles, who lost 21 decisions before winning
a game in 1988. |
|
2006 |
At Petco Park in his first at-bat
of the season, Kaz Matsui hits an inside-the-park round-tripper, making it
the third successive season in which the Mets second baseman has hit a home
run in his initial plate appearance of the year. Ken Griffey Jr. also accomplished
the feat starting in 1997 with the Mariners but had walked before going deep.
|
|
2006 |
Appearing as a pinch hitter at
Petco Park, Julio Franco becomes the oldest major leaguer to hit a home run.
The 47 years, 240 days old's eighth-inning blast, which put the Mets ahead in
their 7-2 victory over the Padres, surpasses Jack Quinn, who accomplished the
feat as a pitcher for the Philadelphia A's at the age of 46 years, 357 days. |
2020 -
Show business newspaper Variety reports that former player Alex Rodriguez and his fiancé, show biz star
Jennifer Lopez, have approached JP Morgan Chase to raise capital to make a bid
to purchase the New York Mets. Owner Fred Wilpon and his son Jeff are known to want to sell the team, after an
attempt to line up a sale with a hedge fund billionaire fell through last
December.
