Some scouring over at Retrosheet
makes me think my flawed brain cells were trying to combine the 6th
inning with this horrible sequence, our last gasp in that dismal game:
METS 12TH: Leary replaced Stubbs (pitching); Sasser singled to
right; Darling ran for Sasser; Mazzilli batted for McDowell; Mazzilli
singled to center [Darling to second]; Jefferies flied to left; Orosco
replaced Leary (pitching); Hernandez walked [Darling to third, Mazzilli to second]; Strawberry popped to second; Hershiser replaced Orosco (pitching); McReynolds popped to center; 0 R, 2 H, 0 E, 3 LOB. Dodgers 5, Mets 4.
To which they may as well have added, Team goes in toilet for nearly a decade.
I'm glad I can't remember my 19-year-old self leaping up and down after J.O. walked Mex. I must have been very excited.
