Around SBN: The Worst Season of Francisco Rodriguez's Career Bar-right-arrows



Mets at Astros, April 15, 1968

The top of the Brewers order didn't have a good night last night, but it was nothing compared to the Mets of forty years previous. On that night, the first four batters in the Mets lineup combined to go 2 for 39 with one walk. They eventually lost 1-0 in 24 innings as the Astros lineup was little better (in fact, both lineups were 11-79 in the game). There were only two extra base hits in the game (both doubles) and twenty singles.

2 for 39!!!

To be fair

A lot of those 37 outs were “productive outs.”

"I will agree that the attitude [at BCB] is ridiculous and they have done so much to instigate animosity and then block us from responding. Real mature!"

Brew Crew Ball is made with whole grains and contains bits of real grit. It's the perfect dessert for a quarter-century of futility. Serve it ice-cold by itself or over a fresh Yosting. Guaranteed to enhance your sarcasm and sense of irony!

Was it a hit?
  • Yes. Hey you kids, get off my one-hitter!
  • No, and it should be changed. Even the Pirates fans, all twelve of them, thought so.
  • No, but it's too late to fix the glaring mistake now, unless...hey, we could pretend Sarah Palin gave up the hit!
