From the A's 1 Mets 0 Post Game Notes - 4/12/2026
Mets: Dropped the final game of their series with the Athletics, 1-0... Were swept for the first time this season and their losing streak is at a season-high five games... .Were shut out for the third time this season which is tied for the most such games in the majors (also: CHW, SEA, and SFG).
Freddy Peralta (6.0 IP, 4 H, ER, 3 BB, 6 K, HR): Allowed one earned run while striking out six over 6.0 innings...Was his longest outing of the season.
Sean Manaea (3.0 IP, 4 K): Fired 3.0 scoreless innings in relief and recorded a season-high four strikeouts.

A.J. Minter: Tossed a scoreless inning and struck out one in his second rehab appearance for St. Lucie.
NY Post: Flailing Mets booed off field as they get swept by A’s for fifth straight loss "Peralta held the A’s to one run over six innings, allowing just a solo homer to Nick Kurtz in the third inning. Again, the culprit was the nonexistent Mets offense, which has been dormant for nearly the entire losing streak."
NY Post: Carson Benge finds ‘pretty incredible’ way to help Mets as struggles at plate deepen "Sunday against the A’s, with the Mets down by a run, Benge made an excellent diving catch in shallow center to rob Denzel Clarke of a two-run single to end the top of the fourth...He went hitless Sunday as the Mets were swept out of Citi Field by the A’s to extend their losing streak to five games."

Blaine Boyer granted free agency on April 13, 2011.
Toronto Blue Jays claimed Aaron Laffey of the New York Mets on waivers on April 13, 2013.
1962 | On a wintry day, the Mets play their first home game ever when only 12,000 fans show up at the Polo Grounds to see the return of National League baseball to the Big Apple. On Friday the 13th, the Pirates score the decisive run on two eighth-inning wild pitches thrown by Ray Diavault, beating the New York expansion team, 4-3. |
1983 | The Phillies, trailing by five runs entering the final frame, beat the Mets, 10-9, when Bo Diaz hits a walk-off bases-loaded home run. The Philadelphia catcher's 'ultimate grand slam', a home run which wins a game when a team is down by three runs in the bottom of the final inning, is tossed by Neil Allen, who faces only the final batter. |
2012 | Josh Thole's bizarre base running blunder leads to a very odd double play in the second inning of the Mets' 5-2 victory at Citizens Bank Park. After successfully reaching second base on R.A. Dickey's sacrifice bunt, the 25 year-old Mets' catcher shocks everyone, including the Philadelphia defense, by trying to return to first base, where he is tagged out to complete the unusual 3-1-6-4 twin killing. |
2009: San Diego beats the Mets, 6 - 5, in the first game to be played at Citi Field in New York. The first batter of the game, Jody Gerut, hits a home run off Mike Pelfrey as the Padres jump to an early 5 - 1 lead. New York ties it on a three-run home run by David Wright, but the winning run scores when Luis RodrÃguez reaches on a three-base error by RF Ryan Church and crosses the plate when Pedro Feliciano commits a balk.
2013 - Matt Harvey takes a no-hitter into the 7th inning, until the Twins' Justin Morneau hits a homer that clanks against the right field foul pole at Target Field with two outs. Harvey has the longest outing of his career, giving up only two hits in 8 innings in the Mets' 4 - 2 win. The Mets have seven consecutive hits in the 5th to score all their runs.
2017 - In the longest game yet played at Marlins Park, the Mets defeat Miami, 9 - 8, on a homer by Travis d'Arnaud in the 16th inning. Mets starter Robert Gsellman gives up 8 runs in 4 2/3 innings, but seven relievers combine to pitch 10 1/3 scoreless innings. Yoenis Cespedes hits a pair of homers, while d'Arnaud has four hits, including a bases-loaded triple and his game-winning homer off Adam Conley, who had been scheduled to start the next day. For the Marlins, Marcell Ozuna hits a grand slam in the 1st.
