Transactions:
New York Mets signed free agent Barry Jones on August 14, 1992.
New York Mets traded Pedro Beato to the Boston Red Sox for Kelly Shoppach on August 14, 2012.
New York Mets released Adeiny Hechavarria on August 14, 2019.
1981 | Dave Kingman's home run, a monstrous blast estimated to have traveled 515 feet and will remain, the longest round-tripper ever hit in the 44-year history of Shea Stadium. Kong's tape-measure home run, a solo shot over the left-center wall, comes in the fourth inning off Larry Christenson in the Mets' 8-4 loss to Philadelphia. |
2003 | Despite a massive blackout in the Northeast, the game between the Mets and the Giants at Shea Stadium is the only postponement on the major league schedule. Although Detroit, Toronto, and Cleveland were without electricity, the Tigers, Blue Jays, and Indians either had the day off or played on the road. |
1967: After whipping the Mets eight straight times, Jim Bunning finally loses to the New Yorkers. The Mets beat Philadelphia, 8 - 3.
1969: The eventual World Champ Mets drop to third place, nine and half games behind the front-running Cubs.
1981: Mike Schmidt hits his 300th career home run off Mike Scott as Philadelphia beats the Mets, 8 - 4.
1991: Jeff Reardon of the Red Sox and Lee Smith of the Cardinals both reach the 30-save level for the 6th consecutive season, tying the major league record. Reardon notches his in a 2- 1 win over Cleveland, while Smith saves St. Louis' 5 - 4 victory over the Mets.
2011: The Diamondbacks beat the Mets, 5 - 3, but lose pitcher Jason Marquis for the rest of the season. Marquis is hit on the shin by a batted ball hit by Angel Pagan in the 3rd inning. Thinking it's only a bad bruise, Marquis continues pitching through the pain into the 4th inning, when he collapses while throwing a pitch that plunks Josh Thole. He is diagnosed with a fractured right fibulay.
