New York Mets traded Tom Hall to the Kansas City Royals for Bryan Jones on May 7, 1976.
New York Mets claimed Chico Walker on waivers from the Chicago Cubs on May 7, 1992.
New York Mets claimed Tommy Milone on waivers from the Milwaukee Brewers on May 7, 2017.
New York Mets traded Jim Marshall to the Pittsburgh Pirates for Vinegar Bend Mizell on May 6, 1962.
1970 | At Shea Stadium, Wes Parker hits a triple off Jim McAndrew to beat the Mets in the tenth inning, 7-4. The three-bagger completes the cycle for the Dodger first baseman. |
1991 | Darryl Strawberry returns to New York as a Dodger with mixed results. A crowd of 49,118 mostly booing fans watches him hit a two-run home run, and they cheer when he makes the last out of the game with the potential tying and winning runs on base in the 6-5 Mets victory. |
2010 | Lance Orton and Duane Jackson, who were instrumental foiling a terrorist's attempt to set off a car bomb in Times Square, are honored at Citi Field prior to the Mets game against San Francisco. The two street vendors alerted the police after they observed a parked car on 45th Street had started to fill with smoke and was making popping sounds. |
2011 | After a first-inning walk in the Dodgers' 4-2 loss to the Mets, Andre Ethier goes 0-for-4, ending his 30-game hitting streak. The L.A. outfielder falls one game short of the franchise record set in 1969 by Willie Davis, who enjoyed a 31-game hitting streak that season. |
2013 | Mets phenom Matt Harvey continues to dominate the National League when he throws nine frames of one-hit ball along with 12 strikeouts en route to a no-decision in the team's 1-0 extra-inning victory over the White Sox at Citi Field. The 24 year-old right-hander, whose bid for perfection is spoiled after retiring the first 20 Chicago batters by Alex Rios' infield single, adds to his growing legend when he starts the game with a bloody nose, and continues to pitch despite the blood oozing on to his face. |
2016 | In the Mets' 6-3 victory over the Padres at, 42 year-old Bartolo Colon goes deep off James Shields, becoming the oldest player to hit his first major league home run. The portly right-hander, who has now collected three extra-base hits during his 19-year career, surpasses Randy Johnson, who was two years younger when he cleared the fences in 1993 while playing for Arizona. |
2018 | "It's something special. He's going down in the record books, in the Wikipedia book, which is amazing. A little kid from Belfast done good." - PATRICK CONLON, commenting on his son's major league debut. Belfast native Patrick Conlon becomes the first Irish-born player to appear in a major league game in 73 years when he starts, going 3. 2 innings in the Mets’ 7-6 victory over the Reds at Great American Ball Park. The 24 year-old southpaw, known as PJ, follows fellow countryman Joe Cleary, who was born in Cork and played one game for the Senators in 1945. |
Baseball Reference:
2012: Jordany Valdespin makes his first major league hit count, with a 9th-inning three-run pinch homer off Philadelphia's Jonathan Papelbon to give the Mets a 5 - 2 win.
