Mets score six runs in one inning on 1B, BB, BB, BB, HBP, BB, BB, BB, 1B.

Symmetry in the 5th inning:

Wednesday, April 10, 2019
Start Time: 7:10 p.m. ET
Attendance: 20,946
Venue: Citi Field
Game Duration: 3:15
Night Game, on grass
Mets 9, Twins 6

And in Met tradition:

Most famous Mets rally: Wild Pitch, E3. Tuesday, November 13, 2018

... 1986 ... World Series. ... game 6 in the 10th inning ...

What follows embarrasses Red Sox fans but not Met fans. It should.

Mookie Wilson batting. Stanley throws a wild pitch. Mitchell scores the tieing run, Knight goes to second.

Wilson hits a grounder to first base that 90% of soccer players could field. Red Sox first baseman Bill Buckner acts as if he just arrived from another planet. The ball goes right between his legs and Ray Knight scores an unearned run all the way from second. E3...

2 Met runs are unearned. Series tied 3-3. Mets win game 7 the next day. Unearned is an understatement.
