Tim Healey Newsday: Tylor Megill gives up three home runs, Mets get only four hits in loss to Atlanta. 


NY Post: Mets’ bats go cold against Braves rookie as win streak ends at five. "The Mets were overmatched against Atlanta rookie right-hander Spencer Schwellenbach, who struck out 11 and gave up just two hits in seven scoreless innings. The loss ended the Mets’ five-game winning streak and knocked them from the top of the NL wild-card race just a day after they bumped the Braves into second."


Brian Joura Mets360: "Megill retired the first 10 batters he faced but then was done in by the gopher ball. He gave up back-to-back homers in the fourth inning, a scratch run in the fifth and a leadoff home run in the seventh. He fell to 2-5 on the year and saw his ERA go up to 5.20 for the season."

1979
Cubs' slugger Dave Kingman, who hit a pair of round-trippers yesterday, becomes the sixth player in major league history to hit three home runs in one game twice in a season. ''Sky King's' trio of long flies isn't enough when Chicago drops the Shea Stadium contest to the Mets, 6-4.
1993
"That wasn't even a big monkey that was on my back. It was a zoo. The guys treated it like I had won a World Series game for them." - Anthony Young, commenting on his teammates' reaction to the end of his 27-game losing streak.
After a shaky one-inning relief performance, in which he gives up the go-ahead run, Anthony Young's record-setting 27-game losing streak comes to an abrupt end when the Mets score twice in the ninth for a 5-4 walk-off victory over Florida at Shea Stadium. The infamous streak, which covered a span of 81 appearances over two seasons, included 14 losses as a starter and 13 as a reliever.

1996
Darryl Strawberry's 300th career round-tripper is a dramatic ninth inning, two-run dinger which gives the Yankees a come-from-behind 3-2 win over the Royals. The 34 year-old 'Straw' will finish his stormy 17-year major league career with 335, hitting 75% of his round-trippers as a member of New York's other team, the Mets.
2011
With their 10-9 victory, the visiting Mets complete a four-game sweep in Cincinnati for the first time in franchise history. The Great American Ball Park victory is especially rewarding because Carlos Beltran, the team's best offensive player, was traded to San Francisco during the series.

2012
Ike Davis drives in all of the runs in the Mets' 6-3 loss in Arizona when he becomes the ninth player in franchise history to hit three home runs in a game. The New York first baseman joins Steve Finley (2004, Diamondbacks), Eddie Murray (1980, Orioles), and Clyde McCullough (1942, Cubs) as only the fourth player in baseball history to account for all three of his team's runs with solo homers in a defeat.


Baseball Reference:

1963: The Mets' 8 - 2 loss at Houston is their 22nd straight away from the Polo Grounds, and matches the major-league record set by the 1890 Pirates.

1970: Donn Clendenon sets a club record by driving in seven runs as the Mets beat the Giants, 12 - 2. A sacrifice fly and a pair of three-run homers does it. Jim McAndrew is the winner.

1992 - In the Mets' 8 - 6 win over the Phils, Howard Johnson suffers a hairline fracture of his wrist. He'll go on the disabled list on August 3rd and miss the rest of the season.

2015: For the second time this year, Mets reliever Jenrry Mejia tests positive for a banned steroid, a few weeks after completing an 80-game suspension. This time, he is suspended for an entire season.
