  • Assessing the Mets position and strategy ahead the trade deadline - Michael Baron looks at the Mets run differentials inning by inning and notes that - "The numbers in the first and second inning are startling (combined -47 run differential), as well as the eighth inning. This says they fall behind early, haven’t been able to competitively respond, and their bullpen is giving up far too many runs ahead of an opportunity to close games out."

1943
Although the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League will not have an official All-Star Game until 1946, two teams, one composed of South Bend Blue Sox and Rockford Peaches players and the other made up of players from the Kenosha Comets and Racine Belles, put on an exhibition game under the lights at Wrigley Field. The AAGPBL contest is the first night game ever played in the historic Chicago ballpark.
1966
Woody Fryman faces the minimum 27 batters in the Pirates' 12-0 rout of the Mets at Shea Stadium. New York leadoff hitter Ron Hunt singles to center to start the bottom of the first, but is tagged out trying to swipe second base.

2013
Before the game at Citi Field, the Mets and Diamondbacks honor the 19 firefighters killed while battling a wildfire in Yarnell, Arizona with a moment of silence. Additionally, each team hangs a jersey with the word Yarnell stitched on the back above the number 19 in their respective dugouts.


Baseball Reference:

1973: At Wrigley Field, the Mets edge the Cubs, 6 - 5, in the first game of a doubleheader. Then it is the Cubs' turn, as Randy Hundley bangs a 9th inning 3-run homer to give Chicago the 6 - 5 edge. Ron Santo has seven hits for the afternoon, five in the nitecap.

1998 - Trailing the Mets, 8 - 7, in the bottom of the 8th inning, Toronto comes up with eight runs. New York fights back with two in their half of the 9th, but the Blue Jays hold on for a 15 - 10 triumph.

2009: Is the era of high scoring over ? For the first time since September 1, 1976, three National League games end in 1 - 0 scores on the same day. All of the shutouts are combined efforts: Mike Pelfrey of the Mets beats Milwaukee, Johnny Cueto leads the Reds over Arizona, and the Dodgers defeat Colorado with an 8th-inning run.
