Box Score: Mets 4 L.A. Angels 1; 6/12/2022 Mets @ Angels Complete Pre-Game Notes;


Brian Joura Mets360: "J.D. Davis and Pete Alonso homered and Edwin Diaz closed the door with a five-out save, leading the Mets to a 4-1 victory over the Angels Sunday night and another series win."

NY Post: Mets ride Taijuan Walker’s gem in win over Angels to salvage .500 road trip. "Walker struck out 10 batters and walked only one over six innings in which he allowed one earned run on six hits. It was a rebound from a shaky start against the Padres in which Walker allowed four earned runs over six innings."

SNY.TV: Mets' Taijuan Walker says 10-strikeout performance was his best outing of the season. Walker allowed a run in the first, but shut Angels down in final five frames.

Metstradamus: What A Long Strange Trip It's Been. "...so yeah this was a long road trip. But it ended with a 4-1 win over Los Angeles (AL) to take the series and end the trip at 5-5, which when you consider the way past road trips to Caliornia have gone (like last year), you’ll take 5-5 all day. 5-5 is a hell of a lot better than 4-6, and I think Buck understood that by the way he managed the end of the game."

Laura Albanese Newsday: Mets beat Angels to finish road trip 5-5. "The Mets were up 3-1 in the eighth when the Angels put a runner on first with one out and Mike Trout at the plate as the tying run, a scenario that meant summoning Edwin Diaz early. Diaz struck out Trout swinging on a 99.7-mph fastball down the middle and walked Anthony Rendon before dialing his fastball to 101.6 mph to strike out Jared Walsh. It was his fastest pitch of the year and the third-fastest of his career. He struck out the side in the ninth to earn his 12th save."

National Pastime.com: 

1965

At Shea Stadium, 20 year-old outfielder Ron Swoboda, in-route to finishing the season with 19, breaks the franchise record for home runs hit by a rookie when he goes deep off Dick Ellsworth in the first inning with a three-run homer, a poke that will provide all of the runs the Mets will score in their 3-2 victory over Chicago. Jim Hickman had established the mark with 13 round-trippers in 1962, the club's inaugural season.

1976

The Mets sweep the Giants in a twin bill at Candlestick Park, 4-2 and 4-1. The victories mark the first time in 17 tries that the team has won two games on the same day.

2012

R.A. Dickey, who gives up only a first-inning infield single for his second career one-hitter in the Mets' 9-1 victory over the Rays, breaks the franchise record for consecutive scoreless innings. The 37 year-old knuckleballer, surpassing the previous club mark of 31.2 scoreless innings in a row set by Jerry Koosman in 1973, establishes a new mark of 32.2 frames before an unearned run in the ninth inning snaps his string.

Baseball Reference:

1980: Vida Blue of the San Francisco Giants defeats the Mets, 3 - 1, as Milt May hits franchise home run #9,000 for the Giants. Monte Ward hit home run #1 for the Giants in 1883, and #8,000 was hit by Bobby Bonds on September 4, 1971.

2012: R.A. Dickey of the Mets tosses a one-hitter for a 9 - 1 win over the Rays. The only safety comes in the 1st inning, when B.J. Upton hits a high bouncer that 3B David Wright cannot field with his bare hand; the Mets appeal after the game for the ruling to be reversed to an error, but to no avail. Dickey becomes the majors' first 10-game winner this year, but before the night is out, he is joined by Lance Lynn of St. Louis, who fans a career-high 12 batters in a combined 1 - 0 shutout of the White Sox. You Tube Video.

2013: Adam Wainwright becomes the first ten-game winner in the majors this season when the Cardinals defeat the Mets, 2 - 1. Wainwright pitches seven scoreless innings, while Matt Harvey is saddled with his first loss, in spite of a very good performance of his own.
