2010 Mets center
fielder Angel Pagan initiates the tenth triple play in franchise history when
he snags Nationals' Cristian Guzman's sinking liner with first and second base
occupied. After making a catch that totally surprises baserunners, the

2006: In interleague play, David Wright wins the first Subway Series game of the
year between the two New York City teams when he hits a two-out RBI single
off Mariano Rivera in the bottom of the 9th inning to
give the Mets a 7 - 6 victory over the Yankees. You Tube Link.
2012 - Brandon Morrow pitches a three-hit shutout for the Blue Jays, who beat the Mets, 2 - 0. Morrow is now 5-2 with a pair of shutouts and a 2.63 ERA after signing a long-term contract in the off-season.
