Defining Moments

There are players throughout Mets history who are remembered for a single moment, some miraculous and others infamous. Today, we look at a handful of those "defining moments."

Despite longevity, failure or success on the field, there are some New York Mets who are remembered for a singular, defining moment. It could be a great catch, a critical error or an Amazin’ game-winning home run.

For example, when you think of Todd Pratt, what comes to mind? How about Endy Chavez or Ron Swoboda?

We have compiled a short list of former Mets who come to mind for a singular performance that eventually became a defining moment of their career(s). We hope you enjoy these Mets memories and will add to our conversation with moments you’ve experienced.
