Non-Mets Memories

Here is the memorable games that I have attended (excluding Mets moments. These are events that I was present at (watching on TV doesn't count).

August 9, 2007

The return of Rick "The Babe" Ankeil. There can't be many people who can say that they were at the Mets/Cardinals 2000 play-off games where Rick "Wild Thing" Ankiel brought back memories of Steve Blass and then some as well as his the game he started his outfield career with a homerun. We were luckily enough to be in that small club to witness this great feel good story first hand. Good luck Rick!

August 19, 2004

Astros vs. Phillies. Trailing 7-2 at Citizen's Bank Park and the Phillies with the bases loaded, the Astros turn a triple play (hit into by Todd Pratt) and turn around the game. The score ten unanswered runs and end up winning the game 12-10. In 40 years of watching professional baseball, its the first triple play that I've seen.

2003 Eastern League Playoffs In what appeared to be an unfair advantage of the New Britain Rock Cats to use Eric Milton in the decisive game of the Eastern League Playoffs. However, Milton gives up a 505 foot bomb to Anthony Sanders over the Green Monster at Yale Field and loses the game 2-1.
