NY Post: "Taijuan Walker and long man Trevor Williams will start the two games, though the Mets did not announce who would start which one."
SNY.TV: 5 things to watch as Mets face Cardinals, including bad blood from last series. "A red-hot Brandon Nimmo and a Mets bullpen that is starting to wilt are among the things to keep an eye on."
SNY.TV: Ex-Mets OF Michael Conforto open to signing after 2022 MLB Draft, agent Scott Boras says. "Multiple" teams are expressing interest in Conforto, Boras adds.
Anthony DiComo Mets.com: Mets playing 'long game' with deGrom's recovery. "deGrom will require three to five Minor League rehab starts in his progression back from a stress reaction in his right scapula -- a process that will take weeks to complete....'When you start talking about bone, it’s a little different than muscle tendons,' pitching coach Jeremy Hefner said on Monday. '...We don’t want to mess around with reinjuring that type of situation, because then he’s done for the year...'”

1971 |
Ralph Garr ties a major league record for the round-trippers
in extra innings, going deep in the 10th frame and the 12th with a
walk-off homer against the Mets in the Braves' 4-3 victory. The Atlanta
left-fielder called the 'Road Runner' by his teammates, is the fourth player
to accomplish the feat and the first to do so since 1966, when New York's Art
Shamsky went yard in the 10th and 11th in a losing cause for the Reds at
Crosley Field. |
|
1973 |
At Anaheim Stadium, a horrific injury dampens Bobby
Valentine's promising major league career when his spikes get caught in the
outfield's chain-link fence attempting to catch a home run ball hit by Dick
Green. The 23 year-old speedster, who had started the season hitting .400 in
April, suffers a multiple compound leg fracture and will miss the rest of the
season, eventually finishing his playing days as a utility player with the
Padres, Mets, and Mariners. |
2001: Mets
free agent acquisition Steve Trachsel becomes the first pitcher in
franchise history to give up four home runs in an inning, pitching himself out
of the starting rotation in the process (one day later,
he'll be off the roster altogether, off to Norfolk for a three-week Triple
A stint). To be fair, the Met bullpen
does not exactly cover itself in glory either, with Rick
White and John Franco each contributing 4 runs to San Diego's 15-run total; an uncharacteristically
economical Franco accomplishes all this in one third of an inning. The one Met
bright spot is the performance turned in by a newcomer assigned mop-up duty in
the 9th, super sub Desi Relaford, who moves over from SS to make the
only mound appearance of his major league career. Sporting a tailing change-up
and a fastball, which at 91 MPH is about 5 MPH faster than
anything Trachsel was able to muster, Desi fans the opposing pitcher, then
induces two consecutive Padres to fly out to the deepest part of the park.
2009: In a 2 - 0 win by
the Giants over the Mets,
New York hurler Mike Pelfrey balks 3
times. It had been 15 years since Al
Leiter was the last pitcher to have three balks in a game.
