New York Mets released Miguel Batista on July 26, 2012.

1962
Braves hurler Warren Spahn, en route to a complete-game victory, homers off Mets right-hander Craig Anderson to set the National League record for round-trippers hit by a pitcher. The southpaw's 31st career home run helps Milwaukee extend New York's losing streak to 11 with a 6-1 victory at County Stadium.
2012
Matt Harvey sets a Mets record for strikeouts in a major league debut previously established and shared by Tom Seaver and Bill Denehy with nine when he fans 11 batters in the team's 3-1 victory over Arizona at Chase Field. In his 5.1 innings on the mound, the rookie right-hander gives up three hits, while collecting two hits in the batter's box.


Baseball Reference:

1964: The Braves sweep the Mets in a doubleheader at Shea Stadium, but Atlanta uses 11 pitchers to do it. The Mets also use 11 pitchers, a two-team record, as the Braves win, 11 - 7 and 15 - 10. Both wins go to Chi-Chi Olivo who toils just 2 2/3 innings.

1975 - Bill Madlock goes 6 for 6 during the Cubs' 10-inning, 9 - 8, loss to the Mets.

1978: Johnny Bench hits his 300th career home run, off Nino Espinosa, and Pete Rose hits in his 39th straight game, but the Reds bow to the Mets, 12 - 3.

2012: Matt Harvey strikes out 11 Diamondback hitters in his major league debut, beating the Mets franchise record of 9 held by Tom Seaver and Bill Denehy; it is the most in a debut since Stephen Strasburg fanned 14 for the Nationals two years ago. Harvey allows no runs on three hits in 5 1/3 innings, before leaving because of pitch count issues; for good measure, he also goes 2 for 2 at the plate, with a double off Wade Miley for his first major league hit. He gets credit for the Mets' 3 - 1 win at Chase Field.

    1B Warren Saunders having a nice minor league season.

    Manny Rodriguez was ice cold until late June in AA, hitting .308 since then to jump way up tp to a season high .217.

    Is Bryce Montes de Oca a Rule 5 guy despite only 23 career minor league innings?

    McNeil ready to go on a tear? He could be a PH on par with Staub and Kranepool when they played for the Mets. Nice to get 1 AB and 2 RBIs. Hopefully, his XBN rate picks up - he has been robbed of quite a few.

    Edwin was on fire. Carved up tough hitters.

    Jose PerOza briefly chilled to the mid .240s, although his OBP remained above .400. In no time he climbed 30 points to nearly .280. Keep going.

    Tom - Drafted in 2018, Bryce Montes de Oca is a Rule 5 guy. Unfortunately, being on the IL all those years doesn't lengthen ones time.
