Transactions:
New York Mets traded Frank Thomas to the Philadelphia Phillies for Gary Kroll and Wayne Graham on August 7, 1964.
New York Mets released George Foster on August 7, 1986.
New York Mets released Shane Spencer on August 7, 2004.
New York Mets claimed Ricky Ledee on waivers from the Los Angeles Dodgers on August 7, 2006.
New York Mets released Alex Cora on August 7, 2010.
Los Angeles Dodgers signed Nick Tropeano of the New York Mets as a free agent on August 7, 2021.
1963: In the Mets' 7 - 3 win over the St. Louis Cardinals, Jim Hickman hits for the cycle, doing it in order. Both are firsts for the New York Mets.
1964: The 10th-place Mets send 1B Frank Thomas to the National League-leading Phils (1 1/2 games ahead of the Giants) for P Gary Kroll, OF Wayne Graham, and cash. Thomas, seemingly the answer to the Phils' first base problem, rides the Mets' team bus to Philadelphia, then finds out he has been traded. He then drives in two runs as the Phils top the Mets, 9 - 4. The Phils will take the next two games with Thomas collecting five RBIs in the sweep.
1972: When Cleon Jones misses a shoestring catch in the bottom of the 13th inning, Ted Sizemore races around with an inside-the-park homer to give the Cards a 3 - 2 win over the 2nd-place Mets. Diego Segui, in relief of Bob Gibson who pitches 10 innings, is the winner. Mets 2B Ken Boswell has no fielding chances to tie a major-league record for an extra-inning game.
1984: The Cubs sweep a pair from the visiting Mets, winning 8 - 6 and 8 - 4. Rick Sutcliffe (9-1) beats Ron Darling (10-5) in the opener, benefiting from a six-run 5th inning. Keith Moreland hits a three-run home run and Ron Cey a two-run shot in the 5th. A five-run 4th in the second game propels Chicago to the win for reliever Tim Stoddard. Lee Smith notches his 25th save.
1992: The Mets obtain OF Kevin Bass from the Giants for a player to be named.
1993: The Mets' Bret Saberhagen injures his left knee and will miss the rest of the season.
2009: Everth Cabrera of the Padres hits a 9th-inning walk-off grand slam off Mets closer Francisco Rodriguez for a 6 - 2 win.
2011: Dan Uggla extends his hitting streak to 28 games as the Braves defeat the Mets, 6 - 5. He has to wait until the 8th inning to deliver a single to keep the streak alive; his teammate Freddie Freeman is not so fortunate, as an 0-for-4 day ends his streak at 20 games. It is the first time a pair of teammates have had simultaneous 20-game streaks since Mickey Rivers and Al Oliver with the 1980 Texas Rangers. The real hero for the Braves, though, is the man Mets fans love to hate, Chipper Jones, who drives in the winning run with a 9th-inning single off Bobby Parnell.
