On April 7, 2000, the New York Mets invited the Los Angeles Dodgers to town for an early-season National League East versus National League West matchup. With some former and future Mets on the Dodgers such as Gary Sheffield, Shawn Green, and Todd Hundley, it was a strange night in Flushing.
Rick Reed got the start for the Mets against Darren Dreifort. The final box score told the strange story of this early April night.
After three straight in the top of the first inning, the Mets went to bat in the bottom half with Jon Nunnally leading things off.
