Column for https://t.co/HXLkX5MaC9: How the Mets' clinching and appropriately subdued celebration offered evidence of how dramatically everything has changed in one year. Many reasons for it, most importantly Showalter and Scherzer. https://t.co/rFsUIg8U1S

Today in Mets History Per Ultimatemets.com:
Born on this date:
- Dennis Ribant (1941)
- Dave Gallagher (1960)
- Jason Bay (1978)
- AJ Ramos (1986)
1966 | The Mets' 3-0 victory over Houston, their 63rd win, assures the team will lose less than a hundred games in a season for the first time in the five-year history of the franchise. The Amazins', who will finish the campaign in ninth place with a 66-95 record, averaged 113 losses a season during their first four years in the National League. |
1969 | Bob Moose, giving the Pirates their third win in two days against the eventual world champs, no-hits the first-place Mets at Shea Stadium, 4-0. The 21 year-old right-hander will compile a 14-3 record with a 2.91 ERA for the third-place Bucs this season. |
1973 | The Pirates miss scoring in the top of the 13th inning when Dave Augustine's 'home run' bounces off the top of the fence into the glove of left fielder Cleon Jones, who relays the ball to Wayne Garrett in time for the third baseman to nail Richie Zisk at the plate. In the bottom of the frame, Mets rookie catcher Ron Hodges ends the Shea Stadium contest, which will become known as the 'Ball on the Wall Game,' with a one-out single off Bucs' reliever Dave Giusti, plating John Milner for the 4-3 victory. |
1973 | After sharing the news on the Today Show, Willie Mays officially announces his retirement at a press conference held at Shea Stadium's Diamond Club. In five days, the Mets will honor the aging superstar with pre-game ceremony night at the ballpark. |
2019 | In the Mets’ 8-1 victory at Great American Ball Park, Pete Alonso goes deep in the eighth inning against Reds’ reliever Sal Romano for his major-league-leading 50th home run. The 24 year-old right-handed slugging first baseman, who is two homers shy of Yankees Aaron Judge’s 2017 rookie record, is the first player to hit 50 round-trippers during the season of his major league debut. |
