David Wright was an all-time great New York Mets player. He was arguably the best offensive player the Mets ever had but what would his career have looked like had he not dove to tag out Carlos Lee at third base on that career-defining night in April of 2011.
Coming off a 2010 season in which he had made his fifth consecutive all-star game, David Wright looked to continue his dominance in 2011 but the baseball Gods had other ideas.
The Mets started 2011 in a rough way starting 5-12. They were about to start a six-game homestand starting with the Houston Astros and try to get back on a winning track.
