Born on this date:
- Frank Cashen (1925)
- Tom Parsons (1939)
- Rodney McCray (1963)
- Grant Roberts (1977)
- Daisuke Matsuzaka (1980)
Transactions:
New York Mets sold Chuck Taylor to the Milwaukee Brewers on September 13, 1972.
Cincinnati Reds claimed Pedro Martinez of the New York Mets on waivers on September 13, 1996.
1963 | On Friday the 13th, hard luck hurler Roger Craig, en route to his 21st loss of the season, allows the lone run of the game to score after getting the first two outs in the ninth inning in the Mets' 1-0 loss to Houston at the Polo Grounds. The defeat marks the fifth time the New York right-hander has dropped a 1-0 decision this season. |
1968 | Jerry Koosman ties the National League rookie record when he hurls his seventh shutout of the season, blanking Pittsburgh on just three singles. The left-hander's 2-0 victory, the Mets' 67th win of the season - a franchise high, equals the mark shared by Irving Young (Braves, 1905) and Grover Cleveland Alexander (Phillies, 1911). |
1983 | Mike Fitzgerald becomes the 48th major leaguer to hit a home run in his first big-league at-bat. The Mets rookie backstop's second-inning homer of Tony Ghelfi contributes to a 5-1 victory over Philadelphia at Veterans Stadium. |
2015 | The Braves extend their franchise-record home-game losing streak, dropping a dreadful 10-7 ten-inning decision to the Mets for their 12th consecutive loss at Turner Field. Atlanta was leading 7-4 before Daniel Murphy's three-run tied the game after the first two batters were retired in the top of the ninth inning. |
