10 Years ago today: 2012; Game #56; Tuesday;  June 5, NYM 6 @ WSN boxscore 12 innings   WP: Detwiler LP: Ramirez Save: Time: 04:15; NIGHT; Attendance: 26,256

NY Post: Shoddy defense costs Mets in loss to Nationals. "Ahead 5-4 after Hairston had scored on a wild pitch in the 10th inning, the Mets couldn’t close the deal in the bottom of the frame as Valdespin — inserted at shortstop — booted two grounders that helped the Nationals tie the game. Ryan Zimmerman reached first on a Valdespin grounder to begin the inning and scored the tying run against Bobby Parnell when Valdespin booted Ian Desmond’s grounder."

Baseball ReferenceIan Desmond drives in the tying run in the 8th, then does it again in the 10th and once more in the 12th for good measure, as his Nationals finally beat the Mets, 7 - 6. The Elias Sports Bureau reports he is the first player since Art Shamsky (1966) to have three game-tying or go-ahead RBI from the 8th inning on in the same game. 

National Pastime.com: On the 11th anniversary of being drafted by the Mets, David Wright becomes the franchise's all-time run scorer when he crosses the plate for the 736th time after homering in the team's 7-6 loss in Washington. New York's 29 year-old third baseman is already the franchise career leader in doubles, total bases, RBIs, and extra-base hits.

NY Post: Braves burn Mets again: Backup Blanco's 2-run HR wins it. "Scott Strickland’s two-run, 416-foot gopher ball to light-hitting backup catcher Henry Blanco broke a 4-4 tie in the eighth inning last night, sending the Mets to their fourth straight loss and the sea-level mark of .500."

After the Mets tie the game in the 9th on a Vince Coleman double, Lloyd McClendon singles off John Franco in the 10th for the walk-off win.

National Pastime.com:  At Three Rivers Stadium, Mets first baseman Eddie Murray drives in two runs, passing Yankee legend Mickey Mantle [1,509] as the all-time RBI leader among switch-hitters.
