Jerad Eickhoff is the seventh pitcher in Mets history to allow 10 or more earned runs in a game, and it's not entirely the list you'd expect:

"Rocker has not been deemed to need Tommy John or any other elbow procedure at this time - negotiations have been slower than initially expected and the team is still expected to sign him"

Born on this date:
- Tylor Megill (1995)
New York Mets purchased Gil Flores from the California Angels on July 28, 1978.
New York Mets traded Bobby Bonilla and Jimmy Williams to the Baltimore Orioles for Alex Ochoa and Damon Buford on July 28, 1995.
New York Mets traded Melvin Mora, Mike Kinkade, Pat Gorman and Lesli Brea to the Baltimore Orioles for Mike Bordick on July 28, 2000.
New York Mets traded Paul Wilson and Jason Tyner to the Tampa Bay Devil Rays for Rick White and Bubba Trammell on July 28, 2000.
New York Mets traded Graeme Lloyd to the Kansas City Royals for Jeremy Hill on July 28, 2003.
New York Mets traded Carlos Beltran to the San Francisco Giants for Zack Wheeler on July 28, 2011.
New York Mets traded Ricardo Cespedes and Merandy Gonzalez to the Miami Marlins for AJ Ramos on July 28, 2017.
New York Mets traded Simeon Woods-Richardson and Anthony Kay to the Toronto Blue Jays for Marcus Stroman on July 28, 2019.
1979 | Cubs' slugger Dave Kingman, who hit a pair of round-trippers yesterday, becomes the sixth player in major league history to hit three home runs in one game twice in a season. ''Sky King's' trio of long flies isn't enough when Chicago drops the Shea Stadium contest to the Mets, 6-4. |
1993 | "That wasn't even a big monkey that was on my back. It was a zoo. The guys treated it like I had won a World Series game for them." - Anthony Young, commenting on his teammates' reaction to the end of his 27-game losing streak. After a shaky one-inning relief performance, in which he gives up the go-ahead run, Anthony Young's record-setting 27-game losing streak comes to an abrupt end when the Mets score twice in the ninth for a 5-4 walk-off victory over Florida at Shea Stadium. The infamous streak, which covered a span of 81 appearances over two seasons, included 14 losses as a starter and 13 as a reliever. |
1996 | Darryl Strawberry's 300th career round-tripper is a dramatic ninth inning, two-run dinger which gives the Yankees a come-from-behind 3-2 win over the Royals. The 34 year-old 'Straw' will finish his stormy 17-year major league career with 335, hitting 75% of his round-trippers as a member of New York's other team, the Mets. |
2011 | With their 10-9 victory, the visiting Mets complete a four-game sweep in Cincinnati for the first time in franchise history. The Great American Ball Park victory is especially rewarding because Carlos Beltran, the team's best offensive player, was traded to San Francisco during the series. |
2012 | Ike Davis drives in all of the runs in the Mets' 6-3 loss in Arizona when he becomes the ninth player in franchise history to hit three home runs in a game. The New York first baseman joins Steve Finley (2004, Diamondbacks), Eddie Murray (1980, Orioles), and Clyde McCullough (1942, Cubs) as only the fourth player in baseball history to account for all three of his team's runs with solo homers in a defeat. |

I sure feel sorry for the fans who spent good money on tickets to last night's game, only to find out Jerad Eickhoff is pitching and then watching him give up 10 runs over four lifeless innings. The Mets weren't even trying to win that game.

Mauricio looking like Darryl at the plate and trotting out HRs. Look at the videos. Be VERY careful about trading him.
Funny that 2 of the FCL Mets coaches are Endy Chavez...and Ender Chavez.
Mauricio has had 9 games in his last 14 games with 2 hits. Impressive.
Great to see Endy and Endor still with the Mets.
