Born on this date:

Transactions:

New York Mets purchased Bobby Klaus from the Cincinnati Reds on July 19, 1964.

New York Mets traded Karim Garcia to the Baltimore Orioles for Mike DeJean on July 19, 2004.

New York Mets traded Jeff Keppinger to the Kansas City Royals for Ruben Gotay on July 19, 2006.

New York Mets sold Wilmer Font to the Toronto Blue Jays on July 19, 2019.

National Pastime.com: 

1980
Roy Lee Jackson retires the last 19 batters he faces en route to a complete-game victory in the Mets' 13-3 rout of the Reds at Riverfront Stadium. The 26 year-old right-hander benefits from his teammates' 20-hit barrage in the Cincinnati contest.



Baseball Reference:

1963 - With one out and a man on in the 9th, Roy Sievers hits his 300th career home run to give the Phils a 2 - 1 win over the Mets. Roger Craig is the victim, his 13th straight loss.

1976 - The Mets' Dave Kingman tears ligaments in his thumb diving for a ball in a 4 - 2 loss to the Braves. Kingman, who already has 32 home runs for the season, will hit only five more after being sidelined for six weeks.

1986 - Mets players Ron Darling, Tim Teufel, Bob Ojeda and Rick Aguilera are arrested following an early-morning fight with off-duty police officers working as security guards outside a Houston bar, but are all released in time for their game against the Astros that evening. On January 26, 1987, Darling and Teufel will be fined $200 while charges against Ojeda and Aguilera will be dropped.

2015: The Mets strand 25 baserunners but manage to defeat the Cardinals, 3 - 1, in 18 innings. Ruben Tejada drives in the winning run with a sacrifice fly and Eric Campbell follows with a successful squeeze bunt as the Mets go 1-for-26 with runners in scoring position. Starter Carlos Martinez is pressed into service for the Cards and takes the loss, pitching 4 innings. The game is scoreless for 12 innings, until Kevin Plawecki drives in a run for the Mets in the 13th, but Kolten Wong replies with a solo homer.

Classic Mets roller coaster - do other teams do this stuff, too?

Good for Conforto - maybe THIS will get him rolling.

Congrats to Blankenhorn.

Mazeika keeps hitting - but with Nido hitting, there is no opportunity right now.

Mazeika would be a great bench piece - power lefty off bench - #3 catcher that would allow Nido to be used a pinch hitter more. The problem is that (as we saw yesterday) they really do need all those pitchers on the roster. Hopefully they get some length from starting pitchers soon.

Then there was this.

First off, on that three run play with Taijuan Walker. The Pirate batters name was (you got it) NEWMAN. It figures. I can't win.

If you watch that play slowly enough, the ball actually hits his left foot and then begins its roll slowly into fair territory after beginning out of bounds. I believe as a result striking NEWMAN's foot it should have been ruled a foul ball. Glasses and video replay should have proven this.

NEWMAN of all people I tell ya'. Get Jerry on the line for me. Could have hired anyone for that role. But no. I'd have done it for free.

The "Lastings Milledge Curse" strikes again! First "The Cookie People" and now this!

See what I mean.

With JD Davis. The man is a power factory here. He ignites the whole team.

Then secondly.

The team for some absurd reason just does not hit for Marcus Stroman. Three hits is getting to be normal when this guy pitches. Marcus just does not get any run support.

Then usually the very next game, the Mets hit like eleven hits and score 5 runs.

I don't get it.

Maybe if we put Marcus in some sort of a disguise or something that might work.

It's too Rodney Dangerfield for me, I tell ya'.

Tylor Megill

This kid is someone to watch. He's got that whole "Left Coast Thing" going on for him. Get his rookie card is my advice!
