It's funny--I actually like Thorne & Singleton as announcers more than Costas & Morgan. But I still like seeing the NBC telecast of this series. Bob & Joe aren't perfect but they're among those I associate with "big games" in '90s baseball, moreso than the other two.

I would disagree. Here's two games in the NLCS that were better than this game. 1. 2004 NLCS game 6 (HOU vs STL) 2. 1986 NLCS game 6 (NYM vs HOU)

@@meharinationsportspodcast2582 This is since the LCS went to best 4-of-7 since 1985 season. For NLCS, I cant put 1986 and 1999 as the best, since both didnt go 7 games. You must have a close game 7 For me, the two-three greatest NLCS were 2003-2004 and maybe 2006

I agree this team belonged in the world series not the 2000 team. I truly believe if they won the series against the Braves, they had a really good shot of beating the Yankees in the World Series.

What a game this was. The Mets were left for dead many times, but always came back and put the Braves on their heels. After the Mets tied the game in top of the 7th inning, the game became a war of attrition and the Mets ran out of gas in the end. No question that the Braves had zero left against those dominant Yankees.

This definitely is one of my favorite games. Thank you for uploading. I loved seeing Eddie Perez play in this series, as Mr. Coleman said, he really was spectacular and a very worthy MVP. When he came up in the first inning starting about 21:11 with the bases loaded was the worst possible thing for the Mets. (I remember the month before Chipper hammered those Mets time and time and the Mets mostly walked Chipper in this series so it is almost as though Eddie was taking Chippers place in this series.) I am glad the interview with Eddie and the presentation of the MVP trophy at the end or around 3:32:00 is included in this video.

I remember this game as a Braves fan. 3:23:04 was major mixed feelings - it was the result I wanted, but I could just imagine Kenny Rogers thinking as he walked off the mound "good luck living this one down". Ouch - that's gotta hurt. This was indeed a thrill win though - what a game!! Too bad we had to get swept by the Yankees in the World Series though!!

it felt like the excitement and toughness of this series sapped the Braves by the time the World Series started, also those Yankees were pretty good

@meharinationsportspodcast2582 Жыл бұрын
The Mets tried converting Mora into a shortstop after Ordonez suffered a season ending injury in 2000. It wasn't a great idea, and then the Mets fans turned against Mora. Which sparked his trade to Baltimore.
