A George Foster walk-off home run against his old team (the old Big Red Machine), now that's AMAZING! And a classic Dave Kingman home run to tie it in the bottom of the 9th, about as good a game as a Mets fan could ask for in those days. 🙂
👍👍 Thank you for uploading. As a kid in the late 1960's and early 1970's, I watched every single home game on WOR Channel 9 , NYC, and if the Met's won, would always tape Kiner's Korner on an old cassette recorder. Transport me back to the days of my youth, when people were sane, you knew all your neighbors, no school shootings, no one was addicted to their smartphones, there was no HIV / AIDS, as it didn't exist, when we still said the Pledge of Allegiance, went to church, no Covid, bacteria resistant microbes, and on and on etc., Not only these, but we had the greatest music ha ds down of ANY generation, in ANY era !!! ‼️👍👍💯🙌🏅💯🍺‼️
R.I.P. Tom Seaver. You will always be remembered.
I was at this game. It was a beautiful Friday night. What a tremendous find. Thank you for posting.
I’d love to see more of these, especially Seaver starts.
Coming soon Seaver with White Sox 8/20/85 vs KC..

Another early 80's treasure! Strawberry's first...Soto vs Seaver. Does not get much better.
dwight gooden was coming
watched this in '83, i forgot Straw, Kingman and Foster were once in the same lineup. those were the days i gave a hoot and a holler. sometimes it's almost too painful to watch the world that once was.
You got that right brother was a better place I was about to be 10 whole life ahead of me
I was 5 years old in 1983. Sweet memories @@dominiceugenio3694
Awesome! Thank you!!
Wow-I'm so glad I found this. I was at this game with my family sitting in the mezzanine behind home plate at Shea. It was electric for Strawberry's first at bat. Shea exploded when he hit that foul home run in extra innings. Great win and one of my many awesome Shea Stadium memories!
Great seeing Ron Hodges as well. RIP Ron. Thanks for all the great moments.
Interesting obervation: Kiner mentions Sam McDowell in the bottom of the 5th inning as holding the single season record for K:IP ratio with 10.7143 and Zabriski responds by saying that's a record that may stand for a long while to which Kiner agrees. Fast forward 38 years and McDowell is now 78th all time with that same stat. The current record is held by Shane Bieber with a K:IP ratio of 14.1983 (2020), effectively illustrating the explosion in strikeout totals over the past 4 decades.
Things began to improve on Wednesday June 15,1983 with the acquisition of Keith Hernandez from the St Louis Cardinals for Neil Allen and Rick Owneby.⚾🇺🇸
The Mets getting Keith hernandez from the cardinals was absolutely robbery.
What a find! Dad and I decided to go Shea to see Strawberry's debut. We stayed until the end too. We saw Seaver pitch on opening day, but I'd forgotten about seeing him live a second time in '83. We thought he had returned to complete his career, but it wasn't the case. That's another story.
I remember this game like it was yesterday. Just to think in a month Keith Hernandez would give the Mets some legitimacy. 1983 was the starting point for the success through the 80's
anyone notice that shot of Keith Hernandez in a Cardinals uniform at 0:31 ? Shot during spring training, he would be playing 1st Base for the Mets by the end of the season.
you mean by the end of June
Back when I truly loved baseball.
These are great! I watch every minute! Can't thank you enough!!
More 1983 games please thank you good times
I have been a Mets supporter since I was 7 years old (1977) moved to Italy in 1984 and I still support my favorite team
R.I.P. Tim McCarver, Ralph Kiner, Tom Seaver, and Umpire John McSherry

13:13--John McSherry, the third plate umpire. God bless him. Collapsed of a heart attack on the field in Cincinnati and later died on opening day (April 1) 1996.
I went to this game! One of the most entertaining games I've ever been to. I think it was the only time Kingman ever came through in the clutch, lol... Cant wait to see it again after all these years!
I was at this game a beautiful Friday night- great game - in fact decades later I asked my friend who went with me to the game if he remembered the game'he said absolutely and it was Stawberry's first game which I had completely forgotten
Man! This is unbelievable thank you
Keith Hernandez would come to the mets a little over a month after this game.
I was at this game sitting down the right field line. I recall several well-lubricated fans nearby incessantly yelling out to Strawberry how many outs there were or to move in or out a few steps.
What an exciting game!
Seems prophetic that Keith Hernandez is seen in the into, as a Cardinal.
Hahaha. Noticed that too. He would get traded to the Mets that season.
Around the 0:30 mark, check out who takes the throw at 1B (37). In a little over a month from this point, Keith Hernandez would be traded to the Mets.
Great seeing the generations coming together: Seaver teammates with Strawberry, who was later teammates with Derek Jeter.
What a rag tag team of retreads..with some fresh blood which would go on to the 85 & 86 seasons. Jesse Orosco, Wally Backman and of course, Straw.
Soto gives up a game-tying homer in the ninth-inning and they still don’t pull him. Different era.
41 year's ago wow
Strawberry talked about how when he faced Soto, he was impressed. He claimed Soto didn't throw as hard as some pitchers he faced in the minor leagues, but that he had a "million times more control" than any of them.
I forgot Kingman was on the Mets in 1983.
Kingman was the first one to shake Keith's hand when he arrived in NY after the trade, telling him "you're my ticket out of here" 😂
Diamond Vision!!!!
I remember watching on television and going crazy when that long foul jumped off of Darryl's bat.
Curious as to how hard Seaver is throwing, looks like he is bringing it pretty good still
It's Jan 16 2024 it's cold as hell with snow covering the ground and I'm spending time on back of truck collecting garbage. Nice to get a few warm moments and watch seaver mookie straw. Ashford Tucker!!? Who? Can't remember them all. Most my passwords are based on Mets with a mix of numbers and signs.
That stock music for the opening was awful! Somehow, it seems more dated than the Syd Dale music NBC used to open their Super Bowl 3 telecast...14 years earlier!
WOR-TV was never a high production network.
RIP Frank Howard
This was heartbreaking for me.With 2 outs in the 8th Soto had a 1 hit shutout with 9ks only to get a no decision
Ronald Reagan Baseball
I didn't hear the aircraft from LaGuardia, because its a night game?
Great hearing McCarver call a game. After a 20 year playing career, he was even better as an announcer. RIP, Timmy.
Who could forget "Bamby's Bandits"?
Bamberger quit on the team that season
R.I.P. Eddie Milner.
Drawing a blank on the Mets 3rd baseman Tucker Ashford. And I watched alot of National League Baseball in the 1980's.
THOSE WERE THE DAYS WHEN BASEBALL WAS STILL BASEBALL IN THE NL. NO LOUSY DH, NO RUNNER AT 2B IN AN EXTRA INNING GAME, NO FIVE OR SIX INNING OVERPAID STARTERS. PLAYERS KNEW HOW TO BUNT. STEALING 40 + BASES WAS PART OF THE GAME.
14:35 Darryl Strawberry's first MLB at bat
48:20 Strawberry's 2nd at bat
1:26:17 Strawberry's 3rd at bat
1:42:08 Danny Heep with the pinch hit homer to break up the shutout in the 8th!
1:53:00 Wally Backman beats out an infield single in the 9th
1:54:25 Strawberry's 4th at bat (K)
1:57:45 Dave Kingman ties it with a 2-run homer in the 9th!
2:18:15 Hubie Brooks ties it again with a homer in the 10th!
2:22:23 Strawberry's 5th at bat (BB, including very long foul ball)
3:06:55 Strawberry's 6th at bat (BB)
3:14:26 George Foster walks it off with a 3-run homer in the 13th!
Miss the days of Cubs, Mets, and Braves on cable every night.
Red Sox & Yankees
Kingman and foster with bombs 💣 to tie it and walk it off great players they were
Those Cincinnati Reds jackets: no lettering, no logo - bizarre.
R.I.P. Lindsay Nelson
TOM SEAVER WAS THE HEART AND SOUL OF THE METS UNTIL THE FRONT OFFICE BACKSTABBED THE THE METS' FAN BASE BY TRADING HIM.
Oh man did they fuck that up?!!! And to think they also got rid of Nolan Ryan as well. All those yrs of seaver and Ryan that could've been. Terrible front office. Lgm
Like seavers uniform
these games are great, helps fill the gap when people finally tune out the current woke sports leagues. so tell me MLB how does Georgia's voter laws restrict anyone from voting? ......crickets
that’s because you have business execs and team owners who never played the game
in their lives run the show..which certainly turned out to be a shit show (haven’t watched a game since..not buying it)
The thing is none of these leagues care what you and the rest of the conservative crybabies are having your latest temper tantrum about because you’ll be tuning in anyway. How’d that NFL “boycott” turn out?…crickets indeed
When I was a kid, I always thought this was the most insane intro, ever. They show met players being thrown out at first??? Although, the irony is, I believe thats keith Hernandez at first at 00:23, who would later that season would become a met
I know you're not Mitch, but he is a turtle boy.
Walk of!!
This isn't too bad of a team, if they had all been in their prime, it's just that 1983 wasn't the right year for them to come together to be a good team.
By WAR, if they were in their peak:
Seaver: 10 WAR (1971)
Hodges: 2 WAR (1982)
Kingman: 5 WAR (1979)
Giles: 1 WAR (1990)
Ashford: 0.3 WAR (1976)
Oquendo: 5 WAR (1989)
Foster: 8 WAR (1977)
Wilson: 4 WAR (1982)
Strawberry: 6 WAR (1987)
Only Ashford was the true black hole in this lineup. There's gotta be a video game out there, somewhere, to mix and match this team based on their peak years, and simulate them to see how they do 😂
Tom Seaver really pitched a good game except a few hiccups. Soto had electric stuff back then. Too bad injuries cut his career really short in the late 80s
LOL out at 1:34:02-1:34:03. A Strawberry shortcut.
This introduction’s music is so 1970s. It was awesome starting the next year, in 1984, with the great WOR theme music.
