METS FANS SHARE THEIR MEMORIES OF THE AUGUST 22, 1988 GAME:

The Mets came into this game having lost 4 in a row, and the offense was in an embarrassing slump, scoring only 3 runs in the 4 losses, as the first place lead went down to 4.5 games to Pittsburgh.

They finally broke out in this one, with Keith and McReynolds hitting homers, and Gooden dominating the Dodgers for an easy 7-1 win, starting off a 5 game win streak and a tone of excellent play that finally put the division away for good.

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.

We do appreciate anybody who takes the time to share their thoughts on our site, and we hate to remove anybody's postings. But if we didn't take steps to ensure that only on-topic messages were retained, The Ultimate Mets Database would become a confusing jumble of unrelated comments, and would thus be less enjoyable to visitors like you.
