Episode Notes

The 1985 baseball season takes a pause as the Players Union goes on strike!  For a full 48 hours.  When the season resumes play, the Mets find themselves red-hot, on a seven game winning streak, and moving into sole possession of first place in the NL East.  Hear about some amazing performances such as a three-home run game by Darryl Strawberry, a two-home run game by Gary Carter, a 5 for 6 performance by Keith Hernandez, and the fourth complete game in a row by Dr. K!
