Maybe some strange things happening because of the date (9-8-98)?

The Phillies hit a team-record seven home runs in this game. Two came off starter Hideo Nomo and three more came off Mel Rojas.

One of the homers Rojas allows is a pinch-homer by Marlon Anderson, which comes in Anderson's first major league at bat.

What is it about the Mets getting blown out at the old Vet? (A 26-7 blowout in June '85) come to mind. However, I was going back & forth between this blowout & Mark "I'm not here to talk about the past" McGuire breaking Roger Maris single season HR record on this Tuesday Night.

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.

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.

Thank you!
