Hello! Here are your handy links to our Discord, merch store (check out the Pride collection!), and Twitter. This is a bonus episode of the podcast for paid subscribers, but on the back end of our Grand Opening Spectacular, we'll have a free newsletter coming later today.We're back for our second episode of Willets Pod At The Park, and so far, it's been a real boon to the New York baseball teams to have us recording at their games. The first time we did this, with Jesse Spector and Thornton McEnery, the Mets throttled the Nationals, 10-0. This time, Jesse took comedian Tony Deyo to the Bronx and not only saw the Yankees beat the Tigers, 13-0, but a seven-run inning.Gerrit Cole did not wind up pitching a perfect game, of course, nor did Jose Trevino hit for the cycle. Eduardo Escobar did wind up cycling for the Mets three nights later, but obviously he did so with a triple to finish, not going homer-triple-double-single.Counting up the total number of cycles that went in “reverse order” is beyond our capabilities here, but we can tell you the last time it happened: old friend Rajai Davis, not at that point an old friend, for Cleveland at Toronto on July 2, 2016 — 25 major league cycles ago now. Davis did have a groundout in his third at-bat in that game, so for completeness' sake, the last recorded player to turn the trick in four straight at-bats (there were four cycles in the 1940s without inning-by-inning data on Stathead) was Arky Vaughan, for the Pirates against the Giants at the Polo Grounds on July 19, 1939. In between, Carlos Gomez, Luke Scott, Jim Fregosi, and Jackie Robinson also did it with outs amid cycles. Given that there are 24 possible orders to tick the boxes on a cycle checklist, you'd maybe expect each outcome around 4.2% of the time. It's actually happened about 2.3% of the time over the last 80-some years, and that seems well within a margin of error for something so infrequent.The last player to cycle in order? Another eventual Met, Gary Matthews Jr., for the Rangers in Detroit, September 13, 2006. This is a public episode.

The 2010's was a memorable decade for the Indians. The team reached the playoffs four times, winning a wild card spot once and three AL East titles. The big years were 2013, 2016, 2017 and 2018. 2016 was a magical year as the Indians went all the way to the World Series and reached Game 7 with the game tied in the 9th inning. Some years were tough developmental ones but it was enjoyable to watch young players improve. Star players for the Tribe in the decade included: Matt LaPorta, Asdrubal Cabrera, Jhonny Peralta, Trevor Crowe, Jason Donald, Shelley Duncan (Dave Duncan's son), Andy Marte, Tony Sipp, Chris Perez, Carlos Santana, Jack Hannahan, Michael Brantley, Lonnie Chisenhall, Jim Thome, Corey Kluber, Ubaldo Jimenez, Jason Kipnis, Johnny Damon, Ezequiel Carrera, Josh Tomlin, Zach McAllister, Nick Swisher, Michael Bourn, Jason Giambi, Mike Aviles, Yan Gomes, Kelly Shoppach, Danny Salazar, Trevor Bauer, Carlos Carrasco, Bryan Shaw, David Murphy, Jose Ramirez, Roberto Perez, John Axford, Cody Allen, Francisco Lindor, Gio Urshela, Abraham Almonte, Mike Napoli (Party at Napoli's), Rajai Davis, Tyler Naquin, Coco Crisp, Mike Clevinger, Andrew Miller, Dan Otero, Bradley Zimmer, Jay Bruce, Edwin Encarnacion, Brandon Guyer, Greg Allen, Yonder Alonso, Melky Cabrera, Josh Donaldson, Shane Bieber, Brad Hand, Adam Cimber, Oscar Mercado, Fanmil Reyes, Yasiel Puig, Bobby Bradley, Aaron Civale, Oliver Perez and many more!

Trying to talk to parents of young children when you’re single vs. when you’re a parent of a young child trying to talk to someone without young children. My daughter likes boys, girls not so much. She’s also a ‘good eater’. I can’t take a compliment, especially when it comes to what I’m wearing. 0:29:52 - 0:45:25 (FRIDAY THE 13th) FandangNOW offered eight Friday the 13th movies for $13 and we bought it hook, line, and sinker. Why ‘80s movies have horrible pacing and way-too-long shots DYK Kevin Bacon is in this film?

Men in Black International with Chris Hemsworth, Tessa Thompson, Liam Neeson, Rafe Spall, Emma Thompson, and Rebecca Ferguson. 1:43:10 - 1:57:34(METS) Mets sweep the Arizona Diamondbacks. I apologize to Marcus Stroman. Juan Lagares hits his first ever grand slam. Recapping the Dodgers series where our producers -- Peter Alonso, Jeff McNeil, Michael Conforto -- stopped producing and a bench player, Rajai Davis, was our best clutch hitter. Whoever makes the Mets schedule needs a reality check. Recapping the Rockies series so far == Steven Matz got rocked, Marcus Stroman hurls another gem, and will Noah Syndergaard come through? What will the final series against the Braves look like? Kudos to the Brewers and Cubs. 1:57:43 (GIANTS) The End of the Eli Manning Era? My ideal fantasy best case scenario for the Giants after naming Daniel Jones the starter and how the 3li prophecy can be fulfilled. 2:02:05 Reliving the four (4) Giants plays that made the NFL Network’s 100 Greatest Plays of All-Time: Carl Banks trying to tackle Randall Cunningham on Monday Night Football, Mark Bavaro’s catch and run against the 49ers on Monday Night Football, Mark Ingram’s catch and run in Super Bowl XXV against the Buffalo Bills, and 2:11:10 - Eli Manning to Mario Manningham in Super Bowl 46 against the New England Patriots. 2:15:00 - 2:49:00 Defending Eli Manning, breaking down the first half of Eli’s career (2004-2011) vs. the second half of his career (2012-2019). The awful 2012 draft. David Wilson’s career-ending injury. No stud RB. No stud TE. Below average offensive line. Below average defense. How benching Eli in 2017 wasn’t the wrong idea.

The Best in Sports News and Analysis, from Danielle McCartan
Rajai Davis speaks with Danielle McCartan and BackSportsPage.com about the dominance of Dallas Keuchel (he is 0-20 against him) and about the evolution of his hitting approach.
A week after it appeared the Mets and Mickey Callaway were about to spiral out of control, they are now back to .500.With the help of Carlos Gomez, Rajai Davis, Adeiny Hechavarria and friends the club finished off a 6-1 homestand. Now things get interesting as they head west for a 7-game stretch between against the Dodgers and D-Backs. Can the Mets use this adversity as a jump-start to their season or is it a stay of execution for the inevitable?Justin Toscano of The Record joins the program to talk about the task ahead, how the Mets can use these injuries as a spark, and his article about how Dominic Smith has worked on being successful despite the lack of playing time.

On top of wrapping up the final results of the Nationals series, the heat was on Mickey Callaway entering the week after 5 straight losses. This prompted the "seal of approval" presser with Brodie Van Wagenen on Monday, while yet another flurry of Meddin' Jeff articles were written by the media, local and national alike. Just another year in the world of the Mets. Injuries have lead to some shuffling of the roster. Of course, after getting heat for a perceived lack of hustle, Robinson Cano pulls a hammy legging out a double. Of course. Rajai Davis got called up after Brandon Nimmo was placed on the IL and immediately makes his presence felt with a 3-run home run to cap off a 6-run come-from-behind inning Wednesday night. What is to be expected of him and will he stick around? Carlos Gomez has yet to truly make his presence felt with the bat though his notorious energy has been there both with on-the-field flare as well as cheerleading from the bench. He's been walking some so he hasn't been completely absent. Can he ever regain his Major League prowess? Jeez, there's even MORE to cover! Yoenis Cespedes violently broke his ankle NOT falling off a horse, but apparently stepping incorrectly in a hole on his Port St. Lucie ranch. Is it time to completely write off him ever playing another inning for this team? So much to cover, so little time! Join us at 9pm ET for the latest edition of A Metsian Podcast!
