Tim Healey Newsday: Bullpen implosion dooms Mets in loss to Padres. “Without Edwin Diaz (rest), Seth Lugo (rest), Aaron Loup (rest) and Miguel Castro (tight neck), the Mets were shorthanded in the bullpen. Without Jonathan Villar (family matter) and Billy McKinney (sore right knee), they were shorthanded on the bench.”

Mets.com: Mets' bullpen gamble on Familia falls flat. Walks hurt relievers; Barnes allows go-ahead slam to Tatis. 

Brian Joura Mets360: “The answer will be that they don’t like Lucchesi facing a lineup the third time…It’s a tone-deaf move…Removing Lucchesi before he faces a lineup a third time might be the correct move eight times out of 10. But this was not one of the eight.” (Subscription required).

1963

In a 10-3 win over the Reds at Crosley Field, Mets outfielder Duke Snider hits his 400th career homer off of Bob Purkey. With his sweet left-handed swing, the future Hall of Famer will finish his 18-years in the major leagues with 407 round-trippers.

1965

Reds starter Jim Maloney, who strikes out 18 batters, no-hits the Mets for ten innings but loses 1-0 when Johnny Lewis connects for a homer in the eleventh in the Crosley Field contest. In August at Wrigley Field, the right-hander will again give up no hits through the first nine innings but records this time a no-hitter when his teammate Leo Cardenas connects in the top of the tenth, providing the only run in Cincinnati's 1-0 victory over Chicago.

Barnes pitched like the excrement of a certain animal found in a barn. I hope he was sent to a Syracuse barn.

Yes, Joey should be allowed to go 6 - everyone else is allowed.

Familia needs to know when to nibble and know when to challenge. He needed to switch from nibbling to challenging when the Profar count got to 2-2. Walks are anathema there.

Who knew in mid May that we'd be saying yesterday, "boy, did we miss Billy McKinney!"

Jose Peraza has 4 HRs, just like Dom Smith. Good for him, bad for Dom. Jose has been a big Jelp to this team.

Villar better watch it, or Nido will steal 3B from him.
