Both catchers were in the game. When Gonzalez pinch-hit, Mickey left him in, moving Weck to catcher. Perhaps he was thinking that (a) as long as somebody has to come out, he might as well not ask his catcher to continue squatting indefinitely in a marathon, ( in a tie game, you can tighten up that defense by replacing a catcher at first with a former gold Glover in the person Gonzo. This strategy, if indeed it was his strategy, didn't particularly hold when Gonzalez (to Howie's description) waved feebly at the two-run hit that effectively put the game out of reach for the Mets.
