Rate I AM A METS FAN AND I AM DAMN PROUD OF IT

Original at Kranepool Society external link    Sat, Nov 7

By kranepool I’ve been fortunate enough to see the Mets win two Championships, maybe it’s just experience as I thought after the each one, the World Series trophies would come in droves. Well I learned they don’t. I thought Gil Hodges would the Mets manager forever. He wasn’t. Of course Tom Seaver “The Fran...

Original at Mets Guy in Michigan external link    Thu, Sep 24

By Mets Guy in Michigan(noreply@blogger.com) Then I learned that Schmitt is co-owner of the Madison Mallards, and independent league baseball team. The team’s site reveals that he is a huge Cardinals fan. Hey, I get it. If I owned a store, the chances are there would be Mets logos all over and posters of Tom Seaver adorning the walls.

Rate Angels and Demons

Original at Mets Walk external link    Thu, Sep 17

By metswalkoffs(noreply@blogger.com) On August 11, they fell 1-0 in 12 innings to the Padres, spoiling a great effort by Tom Seaver when catcher Jerry Grote made an errant throw to third trying to nail Larry Stahl, who was completing a double steal. Stahl would score the winning run.

Rate Stranger Than Fiction?

Original at Mets Walk external link    Wed, Aug 5

By metswalkoffs(noreply@blogger.com) Mets starter Jonathon Niese pitched 1 2/3 innings, and the Mets won, 9-0. Nelson Figueroa is the second pitcher in Mets history to draw a triple and a walk in the same game. The other did it twice (1970 and 1983): Tom Seaver. The Mets...these ragtag Mets, somehow beat the Cardinals by a 9-0 score.

Rate Rickey, Tom, and Johan

Original at Mets Walk external link    Fri, Jul 24

By metswalkoffs(noreply@blogger.com) Rickey Henderson's longevity was such that he faced both Tom Seaver and Johan Santana. Tom Seaver: 4-for-19, 2 RBI, 3 K Johan Santana: 2-for-6, 3 RBI, 2 K This was the day in which Seaver won his 300th game, a complete-game six-hitter in a 4-1 victory at Yankee Stadium.

By kranepool It will be great to see Tom Seaver and Nolan Ryan at the 1969 World Championship celebration but the best reunion will be of Nancy Seaver and Ruth Ryan By the way why is Tony B the “high ranking official” on this road trip? Where is Omar? Getting his nursing degree?

Rate 'Torre'ntial

Original at Mets Walk external link    Wed, Jul 8

By metswalkoffs(noreply@blogger.com) Dodgers skipper Joe Torre is closing in on 100 regular-season wins against the Mets. He entered the series with 98. The Torrential Mets fan knows...Joe Torre had a pair of walk-off hits against the Mets in 1967, including a walk-off home run against Tom Seaver.

By metswalkoffs(noreply@blogger.com) Also of significance from that April 30 twinbill was the second game, one in which the Mets managed eight hits, but lost to 18-year-old Gary Nolan, 3-2. The losing Mets pitcher that day was Tom Seaver and it was the first defeat in his major league career.

Rate 1969 Was Good For The Other Guys Too

Original at Mets Walk external link    Wed, Jun 17

By metswalkoffs(noreply@blogger.com) One of those victories came on a date quite familiar to Mets fans- July 9, 1969. While Tom Seaver was threatening perfection against the Cubs at Shea, the Orioles were finishing a sweep of the Yankees in rather imperfect fashion. Neither managed a walk-off win against the 1969 Mets.

Rate Even Seaver Had Days Like This

Original at Mets Walk external link    Sun, Jun 14

By metswalkoffs(noreply@blogger.com) The Mets fan who yells "Ooh, I've been hit..." knows...Sunday's game marked the 40th time a Mets pitched allowed 9+ runs in a game. Tom Seaver never did it, but among those besides Johan Santana who did: Tom Glavine, Orel Hershiser, Dwight Gooden, and David Cone (Cy Young winners all).

Rate Thrown Out of Shea

Original at Mike's Mets external link    Sun, Feb 22

The year was 1977, and Grant was M. Donald Grant, the Wall Street stockbroker who was Chairman of the Board of the Mets. Though my banner made its debut prior to the trade, the Mets, and Grant, had traded the Franchise, Tom Seaver, and plunged the team and all of its fans into despair.

Rate Respect for the Past Shouldn't Be History

Original at Mike's Mets external link    Fri, Jun 6

I would like to think that even those of you who are much younger than I would be interested in seeing some of those great Mets players of the past honored on a yearly basis. Tom Seaver, Jerry Koosman, Cleon Jones, Jerry Grote and Bud Harrelson are probably familiar to Mets fans that weren't ev...
