Jack Fisher pitched the first game ever played at Shea Stadium. He pitched for the Mets from 1964-67 and was affectionately known as "Fat Jack." He started 133 games for the Mets and won 38 games while losing 73. Not bad for a consistently bad team. He had his place in baseball history and was the pitcher in 3 seminal events during his career.
The manager lost the Giants series. Poor bench and bullpen management and the continued use of players out of position are becoming far too common and costly. The Mets need to get to .500 to be relevant. With the trade deadline looming only time will tell if they become sellers and throw in the towel.
