SNY On YouTube Pete Alonso Post Game Reaction.


Brian Joura Mets360: Gut reaction Cubs 4 Mets 1 - "If you were told before the game that Jacob deGrom would fan 10 in six innings, that Edwin Diaz would strike out the side in the ninth and that in the middle Seth Lugo and Adam Ottavino pitched, you’d probably say that added up to a Mets win. Instead, they were held to four hits and lost to the Cubs, 4-1, Tuesday night at Citi Field."

Metstradamus: Sampsonned - "You play with fire, you get burnt to a crisp. The Mets are playing with fire as they have lost this series with the Cubs after a bizarre 4-1 Tuesday loss. It was bizarre in form and function, in cadence and in application. Bizarre, most obviously, because they scored three runs of Jacob deGrom."

New York Mets traded 
Dan Murray to the Kansas City Royals for Glendon Rusch on September 14, 1999

1996
Todd Hundley, the son of former Cubs backstop Randy Hundley, passes Roy Campanella as the all-time leader in homers by a catcher. The 27 year-old All-Star 41st round-tripper of the season, which was also establishes the single-season record for the Mets, helps the team come back from a five-run deficit and eventually beat the Braves, 6-5.





2008
Mets shortstop Jose Reyes, with his eighth-inning thievery in a 7-4 loss to the Braves at Shea Stadium, becomes the first player to have four straight seasons of 50 or more stolen bases playing for a New York area team, which also includes Yankees, Dodgers, and Giants. The accomplishment extends the infielder's own record, as he is also the only Gotham major leaguer to achieve the feat for three consecutive years.


1980: In a 10 - 7 win over the CubsLee Mazzilli homers to break a drought for Mets. It is the team's first homer in 175 2/3 innings, going back to August 26 when Claudell Washington homered. This will be the longest drought for the rest of the century.
