New York Mets 2013 Banter

Yankees give the Astros their 109th loss of the year last night, and moved Houston's 3-year total to 322 losses. This is good enough to insure the 'Stros of fifth-place in big league history over 3 seasons, and with 2 games left they have a chance to surpass or tie the 4th-place 1940-42 Philly Phillies (323 Ls) and the 3-rd place 1915-1917 Philly Athletics (324 Ls).

But don't worry. The top two spots are still secure, with the 1962-64 Mets top-bottom mark of 340 losses, and the 1963-65 Mets 332 Ls.

Amazin', amazin', amazin'. Congratulations. The records are safe another year . . . at least.
