Mets: Defeated the Tigers, 10-2, in the first game of their six-game homestand...Scored double-digit runs for fifth time this season and are 5-0 in such contests.
A.J. Ewing (1-2, 3B, 2 RBI, R, 3 BB, SB): Laced an RBI triple in the seventh for his first career hit and RBI...Was the first Met ever to record a triple in their Major League debut...Recorded his first career stolen base in the sixth...Is the first player in Major League history with three walks and a stolen base in their Major League debut since 1898...Courtesy of Sarah Langs
Mark Vientos (2-5, RBI, R): Laced an RBI single in the third...Has 10 RBI over his last 10 games after he recorded only seven through his first 23 games of the season.
Francisco Alvarez (1-2, 2B, RBI, R): Left the game with a right knee injury in the sixth...Will undergo imaging tomorrow.
Carson Benge (2-5, RBI, R): Roped an RBI single in the fourth...Is batting .309 (17-55) with nine RBI over his last 17 games.
Austin Warren (2.0 IP, H, 2 BB, 2 K): Tossed 2.0 scoreless innings in relief...Has allowed one run in 11.0 innings this season and has 13 strikeouts...Was his third scoreless outing of multiple innings this season...In 13 career games with the Mets, has pitched to a 0.89 ERA (2 ER/20.1 IP)
NY Post: "A.J. Ewing was summoned from Triple-A to provide a much-needed spark to a moribund Mets team in Queens...That’s after players with checkered injury histories — like Jorge Polanco and Luis Robert Jr. — have gotten hurt, worsening an already poor showing from the lineup."
Newsday: "It was a dazzling debut for Ewing, who started in centerfield and batted eighth in a 10-2 win for the Mets over the Tigers at Citi Field. He went 1-for-2 with two RBIs — a triple in the seventh and a bases-loaded walk in the eighth — three walks, a stolen base and two runs."
Brian Joura Mets360: "Ewing came up five times and had three walks, a triple, two runs and two RBIs. And he also stole a base. He certainly didn’t look scared of the moment while making his MLB debut. Who knows if he’ll be able to keep it up but it was great fun on this night. And it’s hard to say who needed a blowout more – the fans or the team."

New York Mets released Rickey Henderson on May 13, 2000.
New York Mets signed free agent Rick Ankiel on May 13, 2013.
1970 | With two outs in the bottom of the eighth inning at Wrigley Field, Gary Gentry gives up his only hit, a short fly hit by Ernie Banks that outfielder Dave Marshall gets a glove on, but he cannot hold on to the ball. The 23 year-old Mets right-hander settles for a one-hit complete game 4-0 victory over Chicago but could have been the first hurler in franchise history to throw a no-hit game if official scorer Jim Enright had ruled differently on the blooper to left field. |
2000 | A day after failing to hustle, turning a likely double into a single, a disgruntled Rickey Henderson is let go by the Mets. The 41 year-old stolen base leader is batting .219 with no homers and two RBIs at the time of his release. |
1972 - Buzz Capra is the winning pitcher in a 1 - 0 Mets victory over the San Francisco Giants. Capra's first major league RBI - a 2nd-inning single scoring Cleon Jones - is the only run of the game.
1980 - Ray Knight of the Cincinnati Reds hits two home runs in the 5th inning - including a grand slam - to lead the Reds to a 15 - 4 rout of the New York Mets.
2012: Another Mother's Day hero is the Marlins' Giancarlo Stanton, swinging a pink bat in support of breast cancer research, who belts a walk-off grand slam off Manny Acosta of the Mets, capping a 6-run 9th-inning rally as Miami wins, 8 - 4.
