From The Twins 8 Mets 3 Post Game Notes - 7/31/2024:

Mets:

  • Finished July with a record of 17-10 (.629)...Entering today, were the most wins during the month in the majors and the second-best winning percentage in the majors behind only Arizona (.667, 16-8).

Luis Severino: 

  • His shortest outing of the season...He has given up seven or more hits in four out of his last six starts.

Mark Vientos: 

  • Hit an opposite field two-run home run in the second inning to put the Mets up 2-1...Has now recorded an extra-base hit in four consecutive games, tied the longest such streak of his career (Also: 5/18-24/24)... Was the third time of his career hitting home runs in back-to-back games (Last: 6/23-25/24).

Roster Moves: 

  • RHP Adrian Houser and RHP Ty Adcock have been released.


Brian Jours Mets 360: "Severino gave up a solo homer in the second for the game’s first run. After the Mets gave him the lead in the bottom of the inning, Severino gave it right back, with interest. He allowed five runs in the third inning, including another homer. And the Mets were never in it after that."


NY Post: Luis Severino roughed up by Twins as Mets fail to finish sweep "On Wednesday, manager Carlos Mendoza became concerned when he saw 93 and 94 mph readings on Severino’s fastball. He checked on his starting pitcher, who said he was fine. The trainers checked on Severino, who continued saying he was fine. His average four-seamer was down nearly 1 ¹/₂ miles per hour."


NY Post: Brandon Nimmo exits Mets game after fouling ball off foot. "Nimmo was removed from the Mets’ 8-3 loss to the Twins after fouling a ball off the top of his left foot while batting in the sixth inning. He said afterward that X-rays came back clean and that he expects to be in the lineup for the opener of a 10-game road trip Friday in Anaheim."

SNY.TV: "Upcoming Schedule. The Mets are off on Thursday. They open a three-game series against the Angels on Friday in Anaheim at 9:38 p.m."

1972

In the nightcap, the Phillies salvage a split of the twin bill when Steve Carlton, who sees his 30 consecutive scoreless innings streak snapped in the fourth, beats the Mets at Shea Stadium, 4-1. In the opener, New York outlasted Philadelphia, scoring a run in the bottom of the 18th inning for a 3-2 victory.

2010

The Mets induct four new members, all of whom played an instrumental role in the 1986 World Championship, to the team's Hall of Fame. Former GM Frank Cashen, previous skipper Davey Johnson, and two former All-Stars, slugger Darryl Strawberry and right-hander Dwight Gooden, join 21 other persons to be recognized by the club since the inception of the honor in 1981.

Baseball Reference:

1989 - The Mets trade popular OF Mookie Wilson to the Blue Jays for P Jeff Musselman and minor leaguer Mike Brady. Then, behind the pitching of Sid Fernandez, they blank the Cardinals, 11 - 0. Kevin McReynolds paces the offense by hitting for the cycle.

1996: The Mets make a team-record seven errors in handing a 13 - 9 win to the Pirates. The Bucs get seven unearned runs.

2001: The Mets defeat the Astros, 8 - 2, in 10 innings. New York scores six runs in the 10th, the most ever in that frame for a Mets club, with Edgardo Alfonzo's three-run home run the big blow
