Transactions:
New York Mets released Clem
Labine on May 1, 1962.
New York Mets released Joe
Ginsberg on May 1, 1962.
New York Yankees signed Casey
Fossum of the New York Mets as a free agent on May
1, 2009.
1965 |
Yogi Berra, appearing in his first
game since 1963, grounds out to first base unassisted when he pinch-hits in
the eighth inning of the Mets' 9-2 loss to the Reds at Crosley Field. The
former Yankees icon, who became a player-coach for the crosstown rivals after
being fired as the Bronx Bombers' manager last fall, will play in four
National League contests, collecting two hits in nine at-bats before retiring
as a player. |
1974 |
Tom Seaver strikes out 16 Dodgers,
giving up only three hits in twelve innings of work, but gets a no-decision
when the Mets lose the Chavez Ravine contest in 14 innings, 2-1. Steve Garvey
strokes a walk-off single to center field off Harry Parker, scoring Billy
Buckner with the winning run. |
1980 |
The Mets are fined by Commissioner
Bowie Kuhn as the result of disparaging remarks made against the Yankees by
Jerry Della Femina, the president of the team's advertising agency. The
high-powered ad man, who is being paid $400,000 to develop a campaign to
bolster the sagging attendance at Shea Stadium, made sarcastic comments about
crosstown rival players Reggie Jackson and Bucky Dent and was quoted to say
their Bronx ballpark was in an unsafe neighborhood. |
1980 |
Mets starter Pete Falcone sets a
franchise record when he strikes out the first six batters he faces, a group
that includes Pete Rose and Mike Schmidt among the half dozen batters, in the
team's 2-1 loss to the Phillies at Shea Stadium. The southpaw's mark remains
intact for 34 years until Jacob
deGrom, who will become the National
League's Rookie of the Year, fans eight Miami batters from the start of a
2014 game to tie Jim Deshaies’ major league record. |
1984 |
Dwight Gooden becomes the first
teenager to strike out at least ten players since Bert Blyleven accomplished
the feat in 1970. The Mets' 19 year-old phenom, who will break Herb Score's
rookie record with 276 Ks this season, will have a total of 15 double-digit
strikeout games this year. |
2000 |
San Francisco's left fielder Barry
Bonds becomes the first player to hit a ball into San Francisco Bay, aka
McCovey's Cove. The first 'splashdown' home run at Pacific Bell Park helps
the Giants to beat the Mets, 10-3. |
2011 |
The Phillies fans attending the
ESPN Sunday Night Game against the Mets start chanting "USA, USA"
when word spreads of the death of Osama Bin Laden. The reaction of the
sellout crowd comes as a surprise to the players on the field, who are
unaware of the historic event. |
1966
- In the course of Pittsburgh's 8 - 0 shellacking of the lowly New
York Mets, in which the latter's total of 4 hits is equaled by Roberto Clemente, the Pirate right fielder
hits one ball, leading off the 4th, that the young Ron Swoboda, playing left field for the Mets
that day, will recall, some thirty years later, as "the hardest ball I
ever saw hit." Bucs beat writer Les Biederman concurs: "The first hit by
Clemente was one to remember. It started out on a line toward the right-center
fence and came within inches of clearing the wall
at the 436-foot sign. It bounced off the wall right back into rookie Billy Murphy's hands." "The ball got
there so fast, and bounced back to Murphy so hard," notes Dick Young of the New York Daily News,
"that the speedy Roberto got only two bases." "But," adds
Biederman, "the blast caused a rumble through the stands and no doubt
unnerved Jack Fisher."
2010:
Roy Halladay throws his second shutout in three starts when the Phillies stop the Mets'
winning streak at 8 games with a 10 - 0 win. Mets starter Mike Pelfrey's scoreless innings streak is
stopped at 27 as he is charged with his first loss of the season.
2011: C Ronny Paulino collects a career high 5 hits in 7 at-bats in his first start for the Mets after serving out a 50-game suspension begun last season, and then spending time on the disabled list with anemia. His 14th-inning double drives in the go-ahead run in a 2 - 1 win over the Phillies. The win is overshadowed by chanting in the stands at Citizens Bank Park as media outlets announce the death of terrorist Osama bin Laden during the 9th inning. Starter Chris Young gives the Mets seven scoreless innings of two-hit ball, but Cliff Lee only gives up one run in 7 for the Phils, who tie the game with a run scored without the benefit of a hit in the 8th. Taylor Buchholz is the winner for the Mets in the marathon game, beating Kyle Kendrick.
5/1/2011 In the ninth inning of a 1-1 game, the crowd at Citizens Bank Park begins a “U-S-A” chant when news breaks of Osama bin Laden’s death.@HowieRose pic.twitter.com/whSmT88yZt
