METS FANS SHARE THEIR MEMORIES OF THE APRIL 13, 2013 GAME:

Hot Foot
April 13, 2013
Incredible pitching performance by Matt Harvey. In his third start of the year, he took the mound in 35-degree weather with near-perfect command. After the first batter, Aaron Hicks, struck out looking, I had a feeling we might witness a perfect game. His fastball was on fire this afternoon, reminding me of what the great Doc must have been like in 1985. The perfect game bid ended with a walk to Ryan Doumit in the bottom of the second.

Marlon Byrd hit his first home run as a Met to open the scoring. The Mets strung together a bunch of hits and ended up with a 4-0 lead, a perfect score for a no-hitter.

However, it was not meant to be (on this day). With two outs in the seventh, Matt gave up the first base hit by the Twins, a home run off the foul pole by Justin Morneau.

I didn't think that in 35-degree weather, Matt would pitch better than he did on opening day, but I can't say he surprised me.

His line in this one: 8 innings pitched, 2 hits, 1 earned run, 2 walks, 6 strikeouts.

I traveled to cold Minn to attend this game. Yes, it was freezing, but watching Matt Harvey pitch was worth it. It was my first visit to this new stadium. As I entered the stadium, I explained to the Twins greeters to watch our (Mets) pitcher. Doesn't matter the weather, Harvey is already becoming a star.

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.
