The New York Mets, founded in 1962, quickly rose from expansion team struggles to one of baseball’s most iconic franchises, known for dramatic championships, legendary pitching, and passionate fans. The “Miracle Mets” shocked the sports world in 1969, winning the World Series just seven years after their debut behind manager Gil Hodges, ace pitcher Tom Seaver, and stars like Jerry Koosman and Cleon Jones, defeating the heavily favored Orioles. The 1973 Mets captured the National League pennant despite a losing record in July, fueled by pitcher Tug McGraw’s “Ya Gotta Believe” rallying cry, though they fell to Oakland in the World Series. The franchise’s second golden era came in 1986 when manager Davey Johnson, young phenom Dwight Gooden, slugger Darryl Strawberry, and clutch hitter Gary Carter led the Mets to a dramatic World Series victory over Boston, capped by Mookie Wilson’s ground ball and Bill Buckner’s infamous error in Game 6. The 2000s featured stars like catcher Mike Piazza, whose powerful bat made him a franchise cornerstone, and the team reached the 2000 World Series before falling to the Yankees in the “Subway Series.” Pitchers like Pedro Martínez and Johan Santana, who threw the franchise’s first no-hitter in 2012, headlined competitive teams alongside third baseman David Wright, the longtime captain and fan favorite. The 2015 Mets, led by aces Jacob deGrom, Matt Harvey, and slugger Daniel Murphy, reached the World Series before falling to Kansas City. Modern stars like Pete Alonso, one of the game’s top power hitters, and pitcher Kodai Senga lead a roster aiming to return to contention under new ownership committed to winning. From the Miracle Mets to modern stars, the franchise’s history blends dramatic triumphs, heartbreak, and loyal fans in Queens.
