纽约大都会队的1986年世界大赛冠军球队成员周六齐聚一堂，庆祝球队最后一次世界大赛夺冠的40周年纪念。[1]该队在常规赛中赢得108场胜利，在七场世界大赛中击败波士顿红袜队，其中包括一场令人难忘的逆转胜利。[1]
第六场比赛成为这次夺冠最具戏剧性的时刻。[1]当时大都会队在第10局落后两分、还剩一出局的情况下实现奇迹般的逆转。[1]Gary Carter的一记安打开启了这场反击，随后Mookie Wilson的滚地球从一垒手Bill Buckner的手套下滑过，帮助球队扭转局面。[1]第七场比赛中，大都会队以8-5的比分击败红袜队，最终获得冠军。[1]
自1986年以来，大都会队仅在2000年和2015年再次进入世界大赛，但两次均未能夺冠。[1]周六的纪念仪式中，共有22名1986年球队成员参加了赛前活动。[1]
Members of the 1986 New York Mets gathered Saturday to mark four decades since the franchise's most recent championship, reflecting on a team that compiled 108 regular season wins before defeating the Boston Red Sox in the World Series [1]. The celebration brought together 22 surviving players from that squad for a pre-game ceremony [1].
The 1986 championship remains the Mets' last, as the team has appeared in the World Series only twice since then—in 2000 and 2015—without winning either time [1]. The '86 squad is remembered for its dramatic Game 6 comeback against Boston, when trailing by two runs with one out remaining in the tenth inning, Gary Carter delivered a hit to spark the rally before a ground ball from Mookie Wilson slipped under Bill Buckner's glove [1]. The Mets went on to win Game 7 by a score of 8-5 to secure the title [1].
