  3. Here's a variation on yesterday's trivia theme. Today, we're looking for the Mets who hit the most HR's in their entire MLB careers. So who are the top 40 Mets in this category? 41 technically, because there's a two way tie for the 40th spot. Take one point for each player guessed right that's ranked 1-30. Take two points for each player guessed right that's ranked 31-40. Deduct two points for each wrong answer. One guess per post. Deduct three points for each post with multiple guesses. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14t. 14t. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34t. 34t. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40t. 40t.

You don't dim Seaver's plaque or Aaron's because they hang near Jim Rice or Gaylord Perry. People know. Right on.
  5. It's Ken Boyer (2,143 hits, 192nd all time) Dunston (1,597 hits) ranks 494th all-time. Dunston had four more hits than Gregg Jefferies.

  23. Who are the 15 Mets with the most lifetime hits in their entire Major League baseball careers? One guess per post. Scoring: The Met with the most hits is worth one point. The Met with the second most hits is worth two points., etc. Deduct three points for each wrong answer. Deduct five points for each post that includes multiple answers.
  24. I was there. What I remember the most about that game -- besides Kingman's injury -- was walking around the field box section for the first two or three innings because an adult relative tried to hook up with his usher connection who went by the name of "The Phantom". We ended up sitting in field box, very short right field, in front of the wide aisle that split the field box section in half.
  25. Has anyone seen anything else of the writer-director Campanella's work? Ooooh. I did! I did! Son of the Bride (2001) was an excessively maudlin though well acted movie, also nominated for best Foreign Movie of the Year and also starring Ricardo Darin. Campanella's resume also includes several American TV directing credits (House, Law & Order: Special Victim's Unit). I think I'll cue up the DVD-ola for another viewing of Secret.
