True Metsochists know...The Mets have one more walk-off loss than they did entering Wednesday.
That's all you need to know.
In
2009, I did a project for my website, Mets
Walk-Offs and Other Minutiae, celebrating the best home runs in Mets
history. I selected the top 60 regular season home runs and the top 15
postseason home runs. The reason I picked 60 was because it represented the top
1% of home runs in Mets history (and 15 just felt right for postseason, giving us 75 overall).
This was fun to do, but it was imperfect. I had one egregious omission. I tended to favor oddities.
It’s time to give that project an update. And why not do it as a top 100?
The Mets have hit 7,671 regular season home runs. The top 80 represent about the top 1%. And the top 20 postseason home runs get us to an even 100 to celebrate.
Come along for the ride. Hopefully you’ll enjoy the reminiscing.
Hopefully you’ll find it Amazin’.
