I was fortunate to see this first Mets playoff game in Citi Field. I was literally in the last row in foul territory down the LF line. Mets won the game easily and Harvey only went 5 innings for the victory. The place was rocking!

First of all, I watched this great game at a local watering hole due to the fact that I HAVEN'T had my cable since late July (money problems) and with a few exceptions I've had to rely on 710 WOR-AM with Howie, Josh and Wayne. Watched it with a few Mets supporters and when Familia struck out Howie Kendrick, I was tired as heck but it was a happy tired and the 2 bartenders that worked that night are Mets fans in a place that supports the Bronx Satanic Occult!!!! Btw, the Mets are STILL PLAYING OCTOBER BASEBALL and the Yankees are playing OCTOBER GOLF, TENNIS, HUNTING AND FISHING AND A-ROID IS VISITING A NEVADA BROTHEL!! Anyhow, TBS is doing a pretty decent job of the NL playoffs but with one exception: Cal Ripken Jr's DULL commentary!!!! Don't get me wrong, Cal's an all time great but he takes away from Ernie Johnson and Ron Darling's good vibes!!!! LETS GO METS GO!!!! Beat the CUBBIES and then some!!!!

Daniel Murphy stole this game from the Dodgers, literally. After a walk to Lucas Duda forced him to second base, Murphy snuck to third as the L.A. players who had shifted for Duda did not get back fast enough. What a way to make a team pay for putting on the shift! Daniel came home on Travis d'Arnaud's sacrifice fly and the game was tied. Murphy later homered to put the Mets in front to stay and it was on to the NLCS. The Mets won by outthinking the Dodgers.

MY FIRST PLAYOFF GAME THAT I WENT TO SINCE GAME 3 VS LA IN 1988! The Dark Knight Returns! Stellar game! Had "STANDING ROOM ONLY" tickets, so I walked around the whole game with my brother, and enjoyed a Mets Win! Travis blasts one deep center, INTO THE APPLE! Murphy does it with his bat and glove! Familia saves it! 3 MORE!

The best performance of the night (after the Dark Knight and Murph) was all around entertainer and the beautiful Kristen Chenoweth singing "The Star Spangled Banner" only wearing a short sleeved Mets shirt on a clear, chilly October evening!

Froze my nuts off sitting in Promenade Box Section 407, but it was worth it! Murphy finally hit a dinger with someone on base ahead of him off of Jake Who?

Can't believe how far this team has come. I still recall the sting of 2006, 2007, and 2008. Now we are in the World Series. Props to Sandy Alderson for building this team the right way, with good young pitching. Murphy homers again and Duda goes off. Hope this a sign of things to come with Duda going into the World Series. GO METS!!!!

What a clincher of a game!!! Although the outcome was never in doubt but in the back of my mind....When the Mets left runners on base or when Kris Bryant hit that monster HR; I was in Fred Sanford aka Redd Foxx "HEART ATTACK MODE"....Then again what the !@#% was Cespedes donning the NL Pennant shirt and goggles even before the final out (My mind flashed back to 2003 when the late Bernie Mac yelled "ROOT FOR THE CHAMPS...CHAMPS" at that same Wrigley Field before Bartman-gate or when the Red Sox painted the WORLD SERIES logo on the Fenway grass). You don't fool with mother nature and you don't tempt the baseball gods but luckily everything worked out and why was Dexter Fowler still beefing with the ump after the final out. REALLY? OK, Dexter, you can go home and watch the Mets in the WORLD SERIES against the Royals along with Joe Maddon, Kris Bryant, Anthony Rizzo, Rizzo from GREASE, Bill Murray, Eddie Vedder, Jim Belushi, CM Punk, George Will, Hillary Clinton (Oh wait she's a bandwagon Bronx Evil Supporter.), Steve Bartman, The Billy Goat, the Black Cat and millions of other Cubbie fanatics!!! LETS GO METS GO!!!! DO IT AND BRING THE TROPHY HOME TO FLUSHING!!!!!!

I remember settling in at the game to see Syndergaard getting rocked. He escaped the first only allowing a run. Then Wright stands in and crushes a bomb and Citi goes nuts. Then in the second Syndergaard gets smacked around again by KC and I think that this really is the end. But then the offense comes alive, led by my man Curtis Grandson disposing of one down the right field line, and Syndergaard pitches a beauty the rest of the way through. I got a false sense of hope after the game, but hey, here's always next year.

Ahhh Halloween Night... wasn't meant to be. This was the Mets' best chance to get back into the Series after disasters in both Game 1 and Game 2. Started off great with the rookies. Conforto with 2 home runs (1 against a lefty pitcher as well, which was significant since Conforto was mostly platooned in his early career), and Matz pitched well. Had a 3-2 lead entering the 8th inning... let's not talk about what happened after that. It's in the box score, unfortunately.

Great season...lousy ending! I was wishing and hoping (like Dusty Springfield once sang) for a Game 6 but Familia, Duda, etc blew it BIG TIME!!! And when Wade Davis struck out Wilmer Flores at 12:34 am, THAT WAS THAT!! I had to go to work on Monday (I would lose the Election Day holiday pay if I didn't) and cried and sighed with my fellow Mets rooters but also had to put up with the BANDWAGON ROYALS FANS (aka Bronx Guido Redneck Idiots who are about as wonderful as leeches) who the previous weeks rooted for the DODGERS and then CUBS. But I took their vitriol in stride and did my best GANDHI imitation instead of TED NUGENT!! But I also believe in karma and revenge when the Mets kick that @#$% door down like Bum Phillips once said and win the 2016 WORLD SERIES while the BGRI and their arrogant fans are left for dead like Joan Rivers. Thanks for a Amazin' season, Mets and see you guys in March!!

Tough ending to the season, was hoping we could take it all the way. Mets just made too many mistakes in this series. Defensive miscues and blowing 2 ninth inning leads doomed us. Having said that, this team far exceeded my expectations. I thought a playoff birth was possible, but a trip to the World Series: did not see that in the cards. Harvey was awesome and pitched his heart out. Love what the rotation will look like next year as we will be adding Wheeler to the mix. Can't wait for 2016!!! GO METS!!

A tough ending to an amazing and unexpected season. With the starting pitching it seemed possible to go all the way, but you can't blow three late inning leads in the postseason. My son and I stayed beyond the bitter end, still can't figure out where all those KC fans came from. We watched the celebration and next time will enjoy it when it's our turn. We were at the first pitch of opening day and the last one of game 5. Lots of great baseball in between. Another run in 2016 sounds good!

This was the first Mets game ever played in the month of November (NOT counting the Mets post- season goodwill tour of Japan in 1974) and also this was the last game at Citi where Pepsi products would be sold because Coca-Cola is returning in 2016 to be the official soft drink of the Mets.

It was a "dark night" in Mets history.

“Wright throws to first for the out and Hosmer breaks for the plate…here’s the throw from Duda to d’Arnaud…” You know the rest.
