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

Bob P
August 6, 2004
David Cone gets a 5-0 lead after two innings and coasts to a 5-2 win at Dodger Stadium. Fernando Valenzuela was the Dodger starter but he allowed two walks and six hits (including a two-run homer by Darryl Strawberry) in just 1.2 innings. Cone improved to 5-0 with the win and Roger McDowell pitched the last three innings for the save.

With the Mets up 5-0 and one out in the bottom of the sixth, David Cone hit Pedro Guerrero in the helmet with a curveball. Guerrero threw his bat at Cone, was ejected from the game and was suspended for four games.

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.
