I remember the 14th inning of this game. It was after 6:00PM on a Sunday and my family was getting ready to leave for a 6:30 church service. Seeing that the Mets had a runner on third, we hung around to see if they could win it right there.

As a result, there we all were, in church attire, watching the Mets! I said to everyone that a wild pitch would be good here so that they'd win and we can leave. Sure enough, that's exactly what happened! The pitcher threw one that got away and the winning run scored.

We headed off to church very happy. I don't remember if we got there on time or not. I just remember that the Mets won in 14 just before we left.

I was at this game with a friend and his mom and all I really recall was that they noted when "Bob Gallagher" PH, that it was also his dads name. Although I knew he stunk, I said something like "maybe he'll hit a HR" and the mom kind of smiled and said "he'll probably strike out." She was right.

I do also remember the mom wanted to leave as the game crawled on and I think when they won, it was our last inning regardless. At that point in my young life I had never left a game early and I was in shock that he we might, so I started rooting for a balk when they loaded the bases (and neither my friend of his mom knew what that meant...they asked don't you mean walk). I guess by 9 years old I already knew asking for a clutch Met hit was a stretch!

Didn't recall until I perused the box score that Torre almost hit for the cycle.

The Mets suck! They need to trade Smith and get somebody like Jones.
This comment is off-topic and will be removed. It has nothing to do with any specific game. But here's an acceptable alternative:

Example Two
The Mets suck! Smith made three errors in this game, and hit into a double play, and the Mets blew a 5-0 lead. They need to get rid of Smith and get somebody like Jones.
See the difference? Here you're getting the same point across, but it's in the proper context. We wouldn't consider this message to be off-topic, and we would let it remain.
