The Mets and Giants tied a major league record by combining for eight pinch-hitters in the ninth inning. The Mets used five in the top of the ninth and the Giants used three in the bottom.

Earlier, Willie McCovey hit a 500-foot homer that was thought to be the longest home run ever hit at Candlestick Park.

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!
