METS FANS SHARE THEIR MEMORIES OF THE AUGUST 6, 1994 GAME:

The Mets lost a tough fought game on this night, which was the last Shea night game of the 1994 season. This game was never seen in New York because of the Baseball Night in America broadcast rights stating that only one game could be seen in each market, and that night MLB chose to air the Yankee game in NY (The Baseball Night in America rules were very weird at the time and didn't make any sense). So the only way to see this broadcast with Bob Murphy and Gary Thorne was to live in Florida or possibly have a satellite that gave you out of town games. I must say, it was incredibly sad to see promos for games for the next weekend (Saturday August 13th), knowing those games never happened.

The crowd was incredibly lively all game long, even Murphy and Thorne commented on it multiple times, weird for a Mets team that surprised with their decent play that year, but still not going anywhere. Possibly they knew it was the last series they'd see their Mets at Shea that season, who knows. But it was a raucous feeling for sure.

A well fought game, but the Mets could never get the tying run across in the late innings, despite multiple chances.

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!
