Tom Seaver gave up a home run to the first batter he faced in game 1 of the 1969 world series...and the Met won the series!!
But not inside-the-park, right?
Mets never won Game 1 of the World Series. 1969, 1973, 1986, 2000. I hated how they lost Game 1 and 2 at home in 1986. Bad few days.
Here’s some Met history for you. In 1969 in Mets first WS home game in game 3 Tommie Agee hits lead off HR. Then in 1973 Wayne Garrett did that and then in 1986 Lynn Dykstra did this.
