METS FANS SHARE THEIR MEMORIES OF THE JULY 30, 1988 GAME:

This was the first (and last) game I ever attended at Shea. I am from Pittsburgh and the Pirates were surging. This series put an end to that. I can still picture Brian Fisher with that dead arm giving up that long HR to Johnson.

A funny moment from the 9th inning in this game as a fan ran out of the stands and hugged 1st baseman Dave Magadan, making Dave blush, as the woman was attractive.

As for the game, the Mets pitching was once again too much for Pittsburgh, as after this game, they were shutout at Shea for the 4th straight game, going back to June.

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!
