- Have lost their last three games decided by one run.
- Are 24-31 in day games compared to 40-29 in night games.
- Recorded three pickoffs in a game for just the second time ever...On June 20, 1982 at St. Louis, Charlie Puleo (Two) and Mike Scott (One) combined for three pickoffs...Courtesy of Elias.
- Launched a solo home run in the sixth inning to give the Mets a 2-1 lead...He moves into sole possession of 15th all-time in franchise history for homers, breaking a tie with Carlos Delgado (104)...Has homered twice in his last three games...Did not have a homer in his previous 27 games...Left the game with right shoulder discomfort.
- Blooped a single to center field to tie the game at 1-1...This extended Lindor’s hitting streak to a season-long 12 games...Is hitting .358 (19-53) over that span with six extra base hits.
- Has pitched 6.0 innings in three of his four starts since joining the Mets...Has a 1.83 (11 ER/36.0 IP) in six home starts this season...Four of those starts have been quality starts...Has pitched into the sixth inning in five of his six home starts.

1957 | Citing poor attendance as the reason, Giants' president Horace Stoneham, ignoring baseball's edict of banning announcements about relocation of franchises until after the World Series, informs the press the club has signed a lease to play its home games in San Francisco next season. The club's Board of Directors voted 8-1 approving the shift to the West Coast, with the only dissenting vote cast by M. Donald Grant, who will become the chairman of the Mets, an expansion team located in New York to fill the National League void created by the departure of the Giants and Dodgers to California. |
1969 | In the bottom of 14th inning, Tommie Agee hits a one-out walk-off homer off Giants’ starter Juan Marchial in the Mets’ 1-0 victory at Shea Stadium. Tug McGraw tosses four scoreless frames for the win after Gary Gentry pitches the first ten, keeping San Francisco off the board on just four hits. |
2012 | Gio Gonzalez, with his 16th victory, sets a team record when Washington beats the Mets at Nationals Park, 5-2. The 26 year-old southpaw, obtained in an offseason trade with Oakland, surpasses Livan Hernandez, who in 2005 posted a 15-10 record in the Nats' inaugural season in the nation's capital. |
2012 | Play comes to a stop in the bottom of the sixth inning of the Nats game against the Mets when a praying mantis is discovered in the outfield at Nationals Park. The contest continues after New York outfielder Andres Torres carefully picks up the beneficial insect and gently hands it over to a member of the ballpark's ground crew. |
