2006

In a game against Florida, Julio Franco starts at third base for the Mets, who clinched the NL East flag yesterday. The 48 year-old infielder has not played the hot corner since his rookie year in 1982, marking 24 years between starts at the position.

2007

Driving in Jose Reyes with a third-inning single, David Wright becomes the first Mets player in franchise history to collect 100 RBIs in three consecutive seasons. The 24 year-old third baseman will finish the season with 107 ribbies.

Baseball Reference:

1967: Wes Westrum (57-94) resigns as manager of the Mets following a 4 - 3 loss to the Dodgers. Coach Salty Parker takes over and will be 4-7 for the rest of the season. Two days later the board of directors announces it will try to obtain Gil Hodges as manager.
