You talking about the first regular season game(Padres) or the Mets V Boston game(pre-season) that was the Mets first actual game at Citi Field?

[Guest Edgy DC]

Or the Georgetown/St. John's game that might have had a future Met playing in it.

As cooby's authorized stand-in, I can tell you that the trivia calendar is referring to the San Diego game.

You guys aren't very good guessers

'I'm kind of annoyed I can't remember.

I'll guess Mike Pelfrey Strikeout, but I don't think that was it. It might have been a fly out to Ryan Church.

no

I cheated and looked it up. Was gonna be my next guess though. But I'll gladly give a hint if it'll prompt people to guess! ;-)

[Guest cooby]

Hints are fine

I wonder if there are a bunch of us with this same calendar....

I still have the 2007 version half way through. i was sloppy.



the hint is the same player that recorded the first out, also made the first Mets out.

[Guest cooby]

That's a good hint and in fact it answers the question I had in my head

[HahnSolo]

With Ceetar's hint...Reyes?

On behalf of cooby, I confirm that Han Solo has won the point for this trivia question.

[Guest cooby]

This is the first opportunity that I have had to check to see if anybody got the bonus question...

It's still open if anybody cares to take a whack at it.



BTW, thank you to metfairy for filling in for me while I am at work. We had a pretty spirited email conversation yesterday about it!

You're welcome. But if my fill in experience proved anything, it's that you're irreplaceable.

BTW the answer was Brian Gile's popup to short.
