* Tuesday's game was the 179th Mets road extra-inning win, their fourth this season (yes, we're charting those now too).
* It's the Mets first road extra-inning win in Milwaukee in team history.
* The last person to hit a game-winning sacrifice fly in a road extra-inning win for the Mets (before Endy Chavez) was in Miller Park on Tuesday. Mike Cameron had one for the Mets against the Pirates, September 18, 2004.
* The Mets last 6-5 road extra-inning win prior to this one featured an unusual game-winning hit, a Rey Ordonez home run to beat the Marlins in the 10th inning, on May 31, 2002.
* This was the 6th time this season that a Mets pitcher got a win, while pitching 1/3 of an inning. That is a franchise record, breaking the previous mark of five such regular season wins in 2000.
*Lastly, Here are some minutiae bits on Daniel Murphy that came into play Tuesday (thanks BB-Reference).
- He's 7-for-11 with three walks in plate appearances that came in a tie game.
- He's 3-for-7 with four walks as a pinch-hitter.
- He's 11-for-27 (.407 BA) with eight walks when batting in the 7th inning or later.
(That includes a current streak of 8 consecutive times reaching base)
- He's 13-for-27 (.481 BA) with six walks against relief pitchers.
- He's 15-for-41 (.366 BA) away from Shea Stadium.
- He's 15-for-44 (.341 BA) with eight walks with no one on base.
- The Mets are 19-10 when he plays (13-5 when he starts)
