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 a seven-game stretch from May 9 to 15.
That’s just Darling
The Mets went 4-3 over these seven games, and the star on the mound was Ron Darling, who had struggled in April despite a winning record.
