Today in Mets History Per Ultimatemets.com:
Born on this date:
- Jerry Hinsley (1945)
- Graeme Lloyd (1967)
- Eric Campbell (1987)
Transactions:
New York Mets claimed Greg Goossen on waivers from the Los Angeles Dodgers on April 9, 1965.
1985 | The Mets' offseason acquisition of Gary Carter pays immediate dividends when he connects for a walk-off home run in the bottom of the tenth inning, giving his new team a 6-5 victory over St. Louis on Opening Day at Shea Stadium. The 31 year-old All-Star catcher is the first player to end his first contest with a New York team with a round-tripper. |
1985 | Tom Seaver establishes a big-league record with his 15th Opening Day assignment, earning the victory in the White Sox's 4-2 win over Milwaukee at County Stadium. The right-hander, who also got the first-day nods from the Mets (1968-77, 1983) and Reds (1978-79, 1981), will extend the mark previously held by Walter Johnson of the Washington Senators to 16 next season. |
1987 - Gary Carter drives in his 1,000th career run with an 8th-inning single that scores Lenny Dykstra as the Mets defeat Pittsburgh, 4 - 2.
1990: The Pittsburgh Pirates defeat the New York Mets, 12 - 3, at Shea Stadium. It is the Mets' first loss in a season opener at home in 21 years.
