1978

In his first major league at-bat, Dorian Boyland strikes out sitting on the bench. The Pirate rookie is removed with a 1-2 count when the Mets make a pitching change and pinch-hitter Rennie Stennett takes the third strike.

1985

Following a three-homer performance last night, Gary Carter ties a major league record by hitting two solo round-trippers, becoming the 11th player in major league history to hit five home runs in two games. The future Hall of Fame catcher's offensive output, which also includes a run-producing single, contributes to the Mets 9-2 victory over the Padres at Jack Murphy Stadium.

Baseball Reference:

1966: Chris Short shuts out the Mets, 5 - 0, the 5th complete game win in a row for the Phillies' pitchers. 

1972: The Cubs top the Mets, 2 - 0, as Fergie Jenkins posts his 19th win. The Cubs then drop the second game, 7 - 2, to Gary Gentry, who strikes out 8.
