NY Post: Mets-Marlins series finale suspended after three-hour delay amid Marlins’ playoff push. "The Mets were two outs from securing the game and the series, but a ninth-inning blown save allowed the Marlins to take the lead — and allowed more time for Mother Nature to move in. The game entered a delay at 9:41 p.m. in a driving rain, and the Mets announced the game was officially suspended in the same driving rain at 12:58 a.m. Friday."

1963 |
On the season's final day, John
Paciorek, brother of Tom and Jim, goes 3-for-3, driving in three runs and
scoring four times in his big league debut as Houston routs the Mets at Colt
Stadium, 13-4. The 18-year-old Colt .45s right fielder, who also makes two
outstanding defensive catches, will never again play in a big-league game due
to severe back problems. |
1964 |
At a press conference, the Mets
announce Casey Stengel, the only skipper the franchise has ever known, will
continue to manage next season. Although the expansion team has finished last
in all three years of its existence, the 'Old Perfessor' receives a raise. |
2002 |
On the last day of the season, the
Braves use 24 players, with the Mets using 21 to tie the major league record
for the most players employed in a nine-inning game. On September 5, 1978,
the Expos and the Cubs combined to use 45 players. |
2004 |
With the Braves beating the Mets
6-3, Bobby Cox becomes the ninth manager in baseball history to win 2,000
games. The other skippers who have reached this milestone are in the Hall of
Fame, except for Tony La Russa, the current skipper of the Cardinals. |
2018 |
The Mets' all-time hits leader,
David Wright, sidelined by neck, back, and shoulder injuries for nearly two
and a half years, plays his final game in the team's 1-0 extra-inning victory
over the Marlins. After an emotional ceremony, the 35-year-old seven-time
All-Star third baseman exits the game in the top of the fifth frame, hugging
shortstop Jose Reyes and acknowledging the overwhelming response from the
sell-out crowd on-hand at Citi Field to say goodbye. |
