The Cubs and Mets combined for 11 home runs in this game, seven by the Cubs. At that time the eleven homers tied a major league record. I'm not sure if that record still stands.

This game was a donnybrook with Adolpho Phillips crashing three home runs!

Originally scheduled as a single game, this became the back end of a Sunday doubleheader after Saturday's wash out.

In that game, Tommy Davis homered to left field off the Cubs Bill Hands to lead off the second inning of a game in Chicago. The Saturday afternoon game was rained out after four innings.

Great when the wind blows at Wrigley!

This is what I loved about baseball as a seven year old Mets fan. Sunday doubleheaders! Game two of this one was a classic even though the Mets lost. I don't know if Adolpho Phillips ever had a better day as a pro, but to my mind that day I thought he was going to go to the Hall of Fame. Probably the first game I ever watched on TV from Wrigley Field. I was hooked!

Unfortunately, a broadcast recording of this game doesn't seem to exist, but recordings of both games of the St. Louis-Dodgers doubleheader played the same day do survive, so you get to hear Vin Scully & Jerry Doggett follow and comment on this game from St. Louis, and on the exploits of Adolfo Phillips. Phillips gifted a game a year earlier to the Mets with some pretty shaky play, so here he takes it back.

BTW, the Dodgers lost both games of their double header, which I enjoyed. Their first game loss was very 1960's Mets-like, scoring 4 runs in the top of the ninth to tie the game at 7-7, then immediately losing it in the bottom of the ninth on some heroics from Roger Maris. No wonder, since there was a heavy Mets influence on that Dodger team, with two original 1962 Mets (Bob Miller, who was the LP in that first game, and Jim Hickman), plus Ron Hunt. And the WP in the second game, for the Cardinals, was another original Met, Al Jackson.

The Mets suck! They need to trade Smith and get somebody like Jones.
This comment is off-topic and will be removed. It has nothing to do with any specific game. But here's an acceptable alternative:

Example Two
The Mets suck! Smith made three errors in this game, and hit into a double play, and the Mets blew a 5-0 lead. They need to get rid of Smith and get somebody like Jones.
See the difference? Here you're getting the same point across, but it's in the proper context. We wouldn't consider this message to be off-topic, and we would let it remain.

We do appreciate anybody who takes the time to share their thoughts on our site, and we hate to remove anybody's postings. But if we didn't take steps to ensure that only on-topic messages were retained, The Ultimate Mets Database would become a confusing jumble of unrelated comments, and would thus be less enjoyable to visitors like you.

Thank you!
