Their Mlicki Game

Once upon a time, at the dawn of interleague play, a man rose to shut down the defending champion Yankees in the very first regular season Subway Series game of all time.

The Mets lost the next two.

Nobody remembers that.

And in this new age of New York baseball, when Yankee fans look back at the dawn of this new era, they'll remember fondly how the other New York team came into their stadium looking to break their winning streak record with their defending Rookie of the Year on the mound, and got knocked around 6-1.

They'll casually brush over how the Mets took the next two.

We'll look back at when the 2015 New York Mets started a new streak.

LET'S. GO. METS.

Turn That Knob Up

I'll spare you the Spinal Tap references that I, and countless others, made yesterday after the Mets tied a club record with 11 straight games. By now, with the Subway Series looming, we all know there's another place we can turn the knob up to. The technology has improved in amps since the last time the Mets cranked it up to 11, which they've done 4 other times. They've increased the volume, and we can turn it up more.

Let's not stop here. Let's get louder.

Let's show this city, and this country, who's time it is.

TURN. THAT. KNOB. UP.

LET'S. GO. METS.
