Danny Abriano SNY.TV: Mets' offseason is most compelling in team history, but strong core is already in place. That includes Scherzer, Pete Alonso, Francisco Lindor, Jeff McNeil, Starling Marte, Escobar, Canha, Luis Guillorme, prospects Alvarez and Baty (who should both play key roles in 2023), Tylor Megill, David Peterson, and the aforementioned Drew Smith.

Amazing Avenue: Revisiting the Mets’ 1999 NLCS loss to the Braves.

National Pastime.com:

1999

With the bases loaded in the bottom of the 15th frame, Robin Ventura hits a home run, which becomes known as "The Grand Slam Single," driving the Mets fans into a frenzied state as the team, who lost the first three games of the playoff series, extends the NLCS to a Game 6. The Shea Stadium hero is credited with only a single and one RBI when he fails to touch all four bases due to being mobbed by his teammates on the base paths, with the umpires awarding New York a 4-3 victory after ruling Roger Cedeño, the runner on third at the time, as the only player to have crossed home plate before the on-field celebration began.

 Baseball Reference:

2015: The Mets win Game 1 of the NLCS, 4 - 2 over the Cubs, as Matt Harvey pitches into the 8th inning and Daniel Murphy and Travis d'Arnaud both homer at Citi Field.
