Expos had the players, Mets were putting the pieces together. Ralph Kiner was just a wealth of knowledge. Thank you so much for posting this.

I love 80 s ny baseball Yankees Mets both had good players both teams always won 90 games fun times

@mattdon2164

I remember this! After the blowout the day before, it was great to win a close one. I went to the game the next day: Doc Gooden’s Shea debut!

Wally Backman the key swiss knife who's the Mets needed to reach pennant contender in 1985...

It was exactly these 9th inning rallies against the Expos that made me a Mets fan. They were the most exciting National League team of the 80s even when they didn't win the Division or the Pennant.

I remember watching this game live with my brother who wasn’t convinced that the Mets were for real at this point in the early season of 1984. That shot by Backman in the corner to win the game made him a believer and Wally became his favorite player. He wasn’t a very good right handed hitter, which was why he platooned with Kelvin Chapman and Timmy Teufel but man he smoked that.

This is great....thank you for this Mets broadcast from Shea, have always, followed the club and enjoyed Mets baseball, remember being at Atlanta stadium in June of 1976 to see Dave Kingman homerun twice in the game, in a Mets win, and remember standing at one of the many concessions stands, and there was a tv monitor that appeared to be a shared feed, of broadcast and watched the game there of WOR 9...thanks BCM'

Irony-the following year Carter would come to the Mets to take Gibbons's job and number 8.

That was Dwight Gooden's first year with the Mets--1984! Three days later, it would be a Math Problem Day--4/21/84 (4 x 21 = 84--lol)! The Mets would finish in second place behind--the CHICAGO CUBS! And guess who was with Montreal in this game? It was PETE ROSE! (Yes, he played for them before coming back to Cincinnati!)

Just watching a little of this reminds me of the way Steve Zabriskie constantly kowtowed to McCarver. I remember him ONCE disagreeing with something McCarver said, or at least not wholeheartedly agreeing, and McCarver getting royally pissed at him. Zabriskie was always cast as a second banana, just a doormat, and he was smarter than a doormat. He just couldn't compete with McCarver.

I love these uploads! Thank you very much for putting these up. The 80s will forever be my favorite time watching baseball. Do you take requests? My family and I would always go to one Met and Yankee game a year in the 80s and I would love to relive them if they're in your library.

Raines, Dawson, Rose and Carter. Nothing to show for it. Strawberry, Hernandez, Backman, Wilson, Foster and Darling. Traded for Carter. 1986 World Series champions.
