Today in Mets History Per Ultimatemets.com: 

Born on this date:

Transactions:

New York Mets signed free agent Jerry Koosman on August 27, 1964.

New York Mets traded David Cone to the Toronto Blue Jays for Jeff Kent and Ryan Thompson on August 27, 1992.

New York Mets traded Dan Wheeler to the Houston Astros for Adam Seuss on August 27, 2004.


1974
At Shea Stadium, Benny Ayala becomes the first National Leaguer in 13 years to hit a home run in his first major league at-bat. The Mets rookie goes deep off Astros' hurler Tom Griffin in New York's 4-2 win.
1986
With one out in the bottom of the eleventh inning and the visiting Mets ahead of the Padres, 6-5, Lenny Dykstra's throw nails Gary Templeton at the plate when he tries to score from second base on Tim Flannery's single to center field. Knocked on his back by the runner, catcher John Gibbons, from a prone position, throws a strike to Howard Johnson, who tags out Flannery, trying to get to third base, to end the game with an unusual 8-2-5 double play.



2013
Marlon Byrd is traded by the Mets, along with John Buck and cash, to the Pirates for a player to be named later (Vic Black) and minor leaguer Dilson Herrera. Although the outfielder is no longer on the roster, the team follows through on its planned promotion, giving away Marlon Byrd T-shirts before tonight's game.

Baseball Reference:


1969: New York's 4 - 1 win at San Diego, its 74th of the year, sets a club record; Chicago loses for the 7th time in the last eight games, a 6 - 3 loss to the Reds' Tony Cloninger. Ken Holtzman is the loser. Chicago is now just two games ahead of the Amazing Mets.

Most teams have sluggers. The Mets have sluggards.

I hear that two weeks ago, all the hitters signed up for Life Alert. Just in time, too. They've fallen down and can't get up.

Jose Martinez hurt on a swing at end of rehab? Why not? It's 2021.

Why would Syndergaard tell everyone he won't be throwing sliders and curves. Pitching is all about competitive advantage.

That HR he gave up - was that free swinging Yogi Berra at the plate? The pitch had to be 18 inches above the strike zone.

Tom, I couldn’t understand Thor’s comments either, but I wasn’t too upset because this season is over. He may just be challenging himself by helping the hitters or he may just be lying, LOL.
