Brian Joura Mets360: "For the 11th time this season, the Mets were shut out in a game, this time dropping a 2-0 decision to the Marlins Sunday afternoon at Citi Field. In the four-game set, the Mets scored a total of eight runs. If only the Mets could play the Marlins tough. For the game, the Mets went 0-12 with runners in scoring position. That’s just pitiful."
NY Post: "Luis Robert Jr. opened the bottom of the seventh with a single — just the Mets’ third hit of the day — and Jared Young followed with a double that sent Robert to third to end Alcantara’s afternoon. Michael Petersen entered and walked Marcus Semien to load the bases with no outs, but Jorge Polanco and Francisco Alvarez struck out and A.J. Ewing grounded to second to waste the scoring chance."
SNY.TV: "Robert Stock put together a strong audition in his first big-league start since 2021. The journeyman 36-year-old right-hander cruised through the Marlins lineup, holding them to just one run on three hits while striking out four in a career-high five innings."
AP Sports: "Joe Mack homered, Xavier Edwards added an RBI single and Sandy Alcantara tossed six-plus solid innings for the Marlins, who won the final three games of the four-game series. Miami slugged six homers in the series, while the Mets went deep twice."
NY Daily News: "Brooks Raley, one of the Mets’ top trade candidates, pitched a 1-2-3 sixth inning Sunday in what could be his final appearance with the team...Right-handed relievers Luke Weaver and Huascar Brazobán — both of whom remain under team control beyond this season — also pitched a scoreless inning apiece."

1962 | With his sixth home run in three consecutive games, Frank Thomas ties a National League record when he goes deep off Cincinnati's Joey Jay in the bottom of the seventh inning of a Mets 8-6 loss at the Polo Grounds. The right-handed slugger, who equaled the mark with a pair of round-trippers in each game, will add another homer to his club leading total in tomorrow's contest. |
1987 | After his ejection in the bottom of the 12th inning for arguing a close call at first base, the Columbia Mets manager Butch Hobson yanks the bag out of the ground and brings it into the clubhouse in protest. The bounced skipper is convinced to return the base to the field because the team has only one set of bases, but not before he sprays it bright orange to make the bag easier to see for the umpire. |
1995 | Making his first start for the Rockies since being acquired from the Mets, Brett Saberhagen gives up 13 hits and walks three batters, but gets the win in the team's 9-4 win over the Dodgers. The sellout crowd gives their new hurler an enthusiastic standing ovation when he departs the game with one out in the seventh inning. |
2015 | Mike Hessman breaks the minor league home run record with the 433rd round-tripper of his nearly 19-year career, a grand slam against the Lehigh Valley IronPigs in the Mudhens' 10-8 extra-inning International League (AAA) loss at Toledo's Fifth Third Field. The 37 year-old first baseman, who played parts of five seasons with the Braves, Tigers, and Mets, surpasses Buzz Arlett, who established the mark in 1936 while playing for the Minneapolis Millers. |
