Each week, we’ll commemorate the 30th anniversary of the 1986 New York Mets championship run. We’ll focus on the memorable games, players, stories and stats and the journey of dominance taken by one of New York’s greatest baseball teams. We’ll be aided by media accounts from the New York papers as well as interviews past and present. This week, we cover June 13-19.
Beating up on the Pirates
A week after beating up on the Pirates, the Mets were at it again, sweeping four games from Pittsburgh at Shea Stadium.
