2013

NL manager Bruce Bochy names Matt Harvey as the National League's starter. The 24 year-old rookie right-hander, who becomes the first Mets pitcher to start an All-Star Game since Dwight Gooden got the nod in 1988, will be the sixth hurler to start the Midsummer Classic in his home ballpark when he faces the American League lineup tomorrow at Citi Field.

 

 

Baseball Reference:


1969
: The New York Mets rough up Fergie Jenkins for three home runs, including Al Weis's second in two days, to beat the Chicago Cubs, 9 - 5. The Cubs now lead New York by 3 1/2 games. At the end of the game Tom Seaver jumps out of the dugout and clicks his heels several times, mocking Ron Santo's gesture of the day before. The Mets will win tomorrow as well.

1975 - The National League rallies for three runs in the 9th inning to win the All-Star Game at Milwaukee, 6 - 3. The Chicago Cubs' Bill Madlock and the New York Mets' Jon Matlack share the game's MVP award.

1978: Pete Rose collects a hit in his 28th straight game, setting a Cincinnati Reds club record (post-1900) as the Reds beat the New York Mets, 7 - 5. His hit comes off Craig Swan. On the 18th, he'll hit in his 31st straight game to top the all-time Reds record set by Elmer Smith in 1898.

1991: The New York Mets trade pitcher Ron Darling and minor league P Mike Thomas to the Montreal Expos in exchange for pitcher Tim Burke.

1994: In the second game of a doubleheader against the San Diego Padres, the New York Mets' Bret Saberhagen goes 10 innings, striking out 11, giving up five hits and allowing no runs. Consistent with his record-setting season, he walks none.

2001: Behind Mike Piazza's three hits and three RBIs, the Mets win, 5 - 2, over Toronto as both teams celebrate Negro League Tribute Day by wearing old Negro League uniforms. The Mets wear that of the NY Cubans1947 Negro National League champs, while the Blue Jays are in the uniforms of the Chatham All-Stars.

2010: Unused in the All-Star GameGiants pitcher Tim Lincecum starts his team's first game after the break and pitches a shutout over the Mets for his 50th career win, 2 - 0. R.A. Dickey is the loser in spite of a solid effort of his own.

2012: Ben Sheets makes a successful return to the big leagues, a few days short of two years since his last game before undergoing Tommy John surgery. He keeps the Mets scoreless over 6 innings as the Braves win, 6 - 1. The game features the ejection of Mets pitching coach Dan Warthen, who starts arguing with home plate umpire C.B. Bucknor during a 6th-inning mound visit; the Braves score all their runs in that inning, highlighted by Freddie Freeman's three-run homer off Johan Santana.

NY Post article link - states the obvious - Tylor Megill is not going anywhere.

Jose Peroza 0 for 3 in doubleheader...but 4 walks, giving him 38 in 50 games and a .406 OBP.

Mauricio heating up, Alvarez cooling a bit, both are now hitting .233 in Brooklyn.

My guy Carlos Cortes smacks his 10th HR. Despite a bit of a slide in batting average, he has 33 XBHs and remember, their season started in early May.

JD Davis should be the starting 3B when the Mets resume play - all hot bats on deck.

John From Albany said...

Peroza should get the call to Brooklyn. With Ritter hurt and Baty in Binghamton, there are spots for him to play. I saw Bohanek play both games of Saturday's double header at 3B - he did a poor job of getting in front of the ball - made one error - should have been charged with two. Bohanek's future is as a utility player. Peroza is a regular. Call him up!
