New York Mets claimed Jack Egbert on waivers from the Chicago White Sox on September 25, 2009.

1973

"I look at the kids over here, the way they're playing, the way they're fighting for themselves, and it tells me one thing: 'Willie, say good bye to America'." - WILLIE MAYS, bidding farewell to his fans at Shea Stadium.

Willie Mays Night takes place in Flushing as the Mets honor the fan-favorite player in an emotional 55-minute ceremony at Shea Stadium after their 2-1 victory over the Expos. The 'Say Hey Kid' tells the crowd of more than 50,000 fans, "Just to hear you cheer like this for me and not be able to do anything about it makes me a very sad man. This is my farewell."

 

 

 

1984

New York's pinch-hitter Rusty Staub becomes only the second player to hit a round-tripper as a teenager and one after his 40th birthday when he blasts a walk-off home run off Larry Anderson to give the Mets a 6-4 victory over Philadelphia at Shea Stadium. Ty Cobb was the first major leaguer to accomplish the feat.

2003

Friends, family, associates, and former players gather at Shea Stadium on Bob Murphy Appreciation Night to honor the long-time broadcaster. Doing play-by-play for the team since the first game of its inaugural season in 1962, the Hall of Famer calls the last of his more than 6,000 Mets games following the pregame ceremonies.

 

2009

In a position where the team was unable to field a reliable everyday player consistently for decades, David Wright establishes a franchise record by starting his 836th game at third base for the Mets, surpassing his hitting coach and friend Howard Johnson. More than 120 players, beginning in 1962 with Don Zimmer, have appeared at the hot corner for the team, but only ten have appeared in as many as 200 games during the club's 47-year history.

Baseball Reference:

1964:  At Shea StadiumJim Maloney fires a one-hitter in the Reds' 3 - 0 win over the MetsJoe Christopher's 2nd-inning single is the only hit. 

1970:  At Pittsburgh, Willie Stargell throws out a runner in the 8th and singles home the winner in the 9th to give the Pirates a 4 - 3 win over the Mets. The Bucs increase their National League East lead to 3 1/2 games over the Mets and Cubs, losers to the Phils

1984: At Shea Stadium, the Mets' Rusty Staub homers to become the second player to homer as a teenager and also at the age of 40. Ty Cobb is the only other, and Gary Sheffield will match the feat in 2009. Staub's blast, a two-run pinch homer, climaxes a four-run 9th inning as the Mets beat Philly, 6 - 4. 

1985: With the score tied 4 - 4 in the bottom of the 9th, Davey Lopes walks, steals second and third base, and scores on a pinch single by Chris Speier as the Cubs beat the Mets, 5 - 4. Gary Carter's grand slam accounts for all the Mets' scoring. Lopes has three steals in the game to give him 47 (in just 275 at bats) and he sets the record for most stolen bases by a player over 40. The record was set by Honus Wagner in 1914 with 23. Lopes is officially recorded at 39 but when he signed at age 22 he was afraid he was too old so he set his age back a year. 

1998: The fading Mets (88-72) lose another to the Braves, 6 - 5, as Dennis Martinez, the third of seven pitchers, is the winner. Meanwhile, the rampaging Giants top the Rockies to move into a tie with the Mets for the National League wild card

2008: The Mets stay just ahead in the wild card race, beating the Cubs, 7 - 6. In a losing cause, Micah Hoffpauir goes 5 for 5 and hits his first two big league home runs.
