Mets Games Played On This Date: June 7th

 

Matt Reynolds wins a game with great hustle in 2017, RA Dickey continues his Cy Young 2012 season and Pedro Martinez throws a 2 hitter in 2005.  Just some of the games the Mets have played on June 7th. 

5 Years ago today: 2017; Game #57; Wednesday;  June 7, NYM 4 @ TEX 3  boxscore;  WP: Blevins;  LP: Bush;  Save: Reed;  Time: 03:10; NIGHT; Attendance: 32,477

NY Post: How Mets’ 25th man changed the entire script. "Jerry Blevins had flushed a 3-1 lead in the eighth, denying Zack Wheeler a deserved victory, by allowing a two-run homer to Robinson Chirinos...But the Mets kept playing Wednesday night and turned disappointment into something to savor. That included Matt Reynolds’ hustle — the seldom-used infielder kept running from second base on Jose Reyes’ slow grounder and scored the go-ahead run in the ninth to help the Mets secure a 4-3 victory over the Rangers at Globe Life Park."

10 Years ago today: 2012; Game #58; Thursday;  June 7, NYM 3 @ WSN 1  boxscore;  WP: Dickey;  LP: Wang;  Save: Francisco;  Time: 02:47; DAY; Attendance: 32,096

NY Post: Mets beat Nationals; Dickey extends scoreless streak. "The knuckleballer baffled the Nationals, limiting them to four singles over 7 1-3 scoreless innings and leading the New York Mets to a 3-1 win Thursday...Dickey became the first pitcher  the majors to reach nine wins this season, backed by Lucas Duda’s fifth homer in eight games." 

20 Years ago today: 2002; Game #60; Friday;  June 7, NYM 4 @ CLE 3  boxscore;  WP: Leiter;  LP: Báez;  Save: Benitez;  Time: 02:39; NIGHT; Attendance: 39,986

NY Post: Leiter Firing Up Mets: Gritty Outing by Lefty snuffed out losing skid. "Friday’s outing, a 7 1/3-inning stint in which he walked five but scattered five hits, was a study in determination. Leiter let his cutter sail, not navigating it over the plate and giving in to the Indians." 

30 Years ago today: 1992; Game #55; Sunday;  June 7, NYM 0 @ PIT 3  boxscore;  WP: Tomlin;  LP: Schourek;  Save: Time: 02:44; DAY; Attendance: 33,451

Pete Schourek (L,0-2) and Randy Tomlin (W, 7-3) traded zeros for the first 5 innings before Pete gave up a double to Jay Bell and a single to Lloyd McClendon to break the tie.  After a walk and a wild pitch, Wally Whitehirst came in who allowed the runners to score as Pete suffers the hard luck loss. Bobby Bonilla goes 2 for 4 with a double as the Mets just manage to get 6 hits off Randy Tomlin.  

40 Years ago today: 1982; Game #54; Monday;  June 7, NYM 3  Vs. PIT 4  boxscore 12 innings   WP: Scurry;  LP: Allen;  Save: Time: 03:30; NIGHT; Attendance: 8,791

Mets starter Pete Falcone went 10 innings allowing 3 runs.  Neil Allen (L, 1-3) gave up a single to Bill Madlock break the tie and give the game to the Bucs.  After tying the game in the 6th, the Mets managed just two more singles the rest of the way and both were erased on double plays.

50 Years ago today: 1972; Game #46; Wednesday;  June 7, NYM 3  Vs. CIN 6 boxscore;  WP: McGlothlin;  LP: Gentry;  Save: Hall;  Time: 02:29; NIGHT; Attendance: 35,995

The Mets intentionally walked Johnny Bench in the first inning to load the bases for Tony Perez who then doubled to clear the bases as the Reds took a lead they would never relinquish.  Gary Gentry allowed all 6 runs to the Reds falling to 3-4 on the season.

NY Post: Mets finally unleash power to get solid deGrom a win. "It came together for a day. The Mets matched a season high with four home runs and let deGrom and the bullpen handle the rest in a 6-3 victory over the Diamondbacks at Chase Field. After two straight sluggish losses in which the Mets were a mess offensively, Curtis Granderson blasted two homers and Eric Campbell and Wilmer Flores hit one apiece in helping the team finish with a split in the four-game series."

NY Post: It was almost a Pedro No-No: Martinez throws 2 hitter at Astros, thrills Shea Crowd. "Martinez got through the first 61/3 innings last night in magical fashion, allowing one baserunner, a fourth-inning walk. No hits. Not yet. But with one out in the seventh, rookie second baseman Chris Burke came up. On a 1-1 pitch, the 25-year-old smashed a 73-mph curveball into the left-field bullpen for his first major-league homer...After the homer, Martinez received an ovation from the 39,953 at Shea Stadium, and he would continue his remarkable effort the rest of the way...Martinez would go the distance in a dazzling 3-1 win, allowing a run on two hits with 12 strikeouts and one walk...Offensively, the Mets got RBI hits from Cliff Floyd, Carlos Beltran and Marlon Anderson, scoring a run apiece in three different innings. That was plenty for Martinez."
