The Mets have never had a guy wearing uniform No. 9 named to hit in the 9th spot in the batting order in a starting lineup.

But... give me the Nos. 1 thru 8 who spent the most games in the starting lineup slot matching their uni No. And for fun, guess the # of games.

Gluck.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

1 would have to be Mookie.

[Guest Iubitul]

5 would have to be Mr. Wright

[metirish]

I'm wrong but I'll guess Ventura,# 4

Good call Lubital...good Quiz Dickshot..I've done some research but I'll let other play...

[Guest KC]

2 for Elster? Guessing the number of games doesn't sound like fun
but rather a wrench. How many Mets wore 2??? I'm just sayin, before
I cheat and go you know where.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Six is such an star-crossed number, outside of Wally Backman. I was going to guess Daryl Boston, but I'm going to switch to his successor, Joe Orsulak.

I'll say 79 games.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

3 for Buddy Harrelson?

[Guest KC]

Gotta be

[Guest Edgy DC]

What kind of nut would bat Harrelson third?

I'll say Richie Hebner: 27 games.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

Staub 4?

[Guest Edgy DC]

In part because Wright was already selected, I'll toss Steve Henderson in as number 5. I guess he batted there, oh, 143 times.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I'm certain Mike Piazza batted 31st more than any other Met.

Elster spent the majority of his Metly career as 21.

2 = Sasser? Can't be.

[Elster88]

7 = Todd Pratt?

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

1. Mookie (SK)
2.
3. Hebner (good call, edc)

]What kind of nut would bat Harrelson third?

Can you believe though that in 1,300+ games, he never batted third even once?
4. Staub (YSG)
5. Wright (lubitul)
6.
7.
8.

Still need 2, 6, 7, 8 (all prior guesses wrong)

Yes.

[Elster88]

If Edgy's guess was null and void, I'll take Daryl Boston at 6.

still wrong ... though had Boston not spent one season wearing 7, it'd be right.

[Elster88]

One more guess before bed, which I'm sure is wrong because I think he only dipped down to 7th in the order in the late 80's....the Kid for 8.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Carter wrong. He had only 1 game in 8.

[Guest Edgy DC]

2: Jim Fregosi

7: Ed Kranepool

[Guest Edgy DC]

Should've stuck with my first instinct regarding 2, I should.

No.

No.

Is this a great kwiz or what?

[DocTee]

7: Hubie Brooks

8.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

8 - Ronn Reynolds?

[Guest sharpie]

6 - Mike Vail?

[stevejrogers]

I liked last years Kwiz better JD.

2 Jose Oquendo?

BTW, what is it with #8 and catchers?

Guess: Chris Cannizzaro

6: I'll throw out Joe Orsulak
