What a game this was. After Maikel Franco hit what appeared to be a devastating three-run jack off Addison Reed, the ghosts of the 2007 and 2008 collapses grew, but then Reyes tied in the 9th off a struggling Jeanmar Gomez, whose ERA was over 10 in September. The Phillies scored twice in the 11th, including one on a bases-loaded walk. Then, in the bottom of the 11th, Conforto and Reyes both walked, then Asdrubal Cabrera hit a walk off three-run homer with an emphatic bat-flip. People said this was a game that if the Mets made the playoffs, would be a season-saver.

Mets fans should ring a bell from the 1998 pennant race in the game Mike Piazza hit the two-out, two- strike HR off Billy Wagner in Houston

WOW UNREAL! I attended this game last week. Almost left! Was at the top step in Centerfield, by the Shake Shack going into the bottom of the 11th, when I decided to stay! Jose, Asdrubal, come up big!

I'll never forget this game. The only walk off I've ever seen in person.

Was at this game but left in the 9th at the behest of my late grandfather. We were at the Hess in Howard Beach when the Phillies took the lead in the 11th and I remember wanted them to bring Jim Henderson into the game for damage control (which they did). We were driving through the parkland in Broad Channel when Cabrera hit the home run. I didn't even see it until the next day, but just hearing the call on 710 gave me chills. One of the greatest moments of the year.

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.
