Box Score: Dodgers 5 Mets 0 Francisco Lindor SS 1 for 4, 3 Ks; Mark Canha LF 1 for 3, Jeff McNeil 2B 1 for 3, Daniel Vogelbach PH 1 for 1; Tylor Megill (L,3-1) 5 innings, 3 runs - all earned, 7 hits, 2 HRs, 4 walks, 4 Ks;
John Coppinger Kiner's Korner: "Clayton Kershaw pitched seven innings of three hit ball for his 200th career victory and showed why he is a future Hall of Famer. Kershaw didn't have a three ball count until the 7th inning. He struck out nine and walked nobody as the Mets were confounded all night by Kershaw and his curve ball."
Brian Joura Mets360: Brandon Nimmo reached third base on an error to lead off the game. Kershaw proceeded to strike out the side to strand Nimmo at third.
SNY.TV: "Tylor Megill, coming off three straight good games, did not have it in the first inning. After a single from Freddie Freeman, J.D. Martinez took the 27-year-old deep to give the Dodgers an early 2-0 lead. It took him 27 pitches to get out of the first, but he rolled until Martinez came up in the third. The DH took a fastball the opposite way to increase LA’s lead to 3-0."

New York Mets traded Tim Foli and Greg Field to the Pittsburgh Pirates for Frank Taveras on April 19, 1979.
Mets Games Played On This Date: April 19 "The "Har-vee's be-tter" game, Mets sweep Giants, an “Immaculate inning” from Nolan Ryan, and the Mets hit 7 homers in Philly. These are just a few of the games the Mets have played on April 19th."
1968 | Nolan Ryan makes quick work of the Dodgers when he strikes out the side on nine pitches in the top of the third inning of the Mets' 3-2 loss at Shea Stadium. The 21 year-old New York fireballer, who will also accomplish the feat with the Angels in 1972, strikes out 11 batters in 7.1 frames, including Claude Osteen, Wes Parker, and Zoilo Versalles, the victims of his immaculate inning. |
1979 | The Mets trade Tim Foli, along with minor league prospect Greg Field, to the Pirates in exchange for second baseman Frank Taveras. Foli, appearing in 133 games, will play a significant role in the club's world championship this season, batting .291 and providing solid defense at shortstop for the Bucs. |
1987 | In the 4000th game in franchise history, the Mets drop a 4-2 decision to St. Louis at Busch Stadium. The reigning World Champs, who started as an expansion team in 1962, have won exactly half of their last 1000 games, posting a 500-498-2 record during the span that began on July 19, 1980. |
1997 | The Cubs lose their 13th consecutive game to match the longest losing streak in the franchise's 122-year history. Reliever Turk Wendell, wearing #13, is tagged with the loss when Chicago drops a 6-3 decision to Mets at Shea Stadium. |
1998 | Equaling their largest margin of victory when keeping an opponent scoreless, the Mets rout Cincinnati at Cinergy Field, 14-0. Outfielder Bernard Gilkey crosses the plate in the first, third, fifth, seventh, and eighth inning, becoming only one of four players in franchise history to score five runs in one game. |
1998 | The Devil Rays, en route to finishing last in the AL East, improve their record to 10-6, beating the Angels at Anaheim, 6-0, becoming the first expansion team to be four games over .500 at any point in their inaugural season. In contrast, the 1962 Mets posted a 3-13 mark in the first 16 games in the history of the franchise. |
2005 | David Wright's seventh-inning grand slam at Philadelphia's Citizens Bank Park establishes a club record for home runs hit in a game. The Mets go deep seven times (Reyes-2, Diaz-2, Piazza, Wright, and Mientkiewicz) when they rout the Phillies, 16-4. |
2013 | According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Matt Harvey becomes the first pitcher in modern major league history to win his first four games while giving up less than a total of ten hits. The 24 year-old Mets right-hander easily outduels his mound opponent, Washington's former phenom, Stephen Strasburg, prompting the Citi Field crowd to start chanting, "Har-vee's be-tter, "Har-vee's be-tter." |
2010: The Mets' youngsters are in evidence in a 6 - 1 win over the Cubs. Jonathon Niese picks up the win with a solid effort over 5 2/3 innings; Jenrry Mejia, the youngest player in the National League, pitches the final two innings; and 1B Ike Davis goes 2 for 4 with an RBI in his major league debut. Angel Pagan adds a homer off James Russell, who suffers his first major league loss for Chicago.
