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!

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. |
I Love Baseball
Yes I am a Mets fan, but most importantly, I am a baseball fan.
Here are some of my baseball memories where the Mets weren't on the
field.
