1The Mets are on the road in St. Louis, MO, where they face their former fierce division rivals, the Cardinals.
hroughout the 1980s, the Mets and the Cardinals were bitter rivals. Between 1985 and 1988, they each won two NL East division titles. The Cardinals made it to the Fall Classic in 1985 and 1987, losing both to the Kansas City Royals and the Minnesota Twins, respectively. The Mets only made it to one World Series during that time, but luckily, they managed to win that one.
The two teams were no stranger to trash-talking during the 1980s. A 1987 article described how some Cardinals fans hated the Mets so much that they created t-shirts and flew banners over Busch Stadium stating quite plainly, “The Mets are pond scum.” Cardinals manager Whitey Herzog also had pointed words for his 1980s rivals: ”Whatever they do gets headlines. When we do something, it’s in the corner of a paper.”
The outspoken Mets players of the time had no problem coming back with opinions of their own. In the midst of the 1987 division race, Howard Johnson quipped, “I wish the Cardinals would be on DiamondVision more often–especially when they lose.” Gary Carter also commented that the Cardinals were “looking over their shoulders” at the Mets during that time.
Two years earlier, Carter had started his career in Queens off with a bang by hitting a walk-off homer on Opening Day against the Cardinals, sending the Mets to a 6-5 victory and immediately endearing himself to Flushing fans.
Though the Cardinals again had the upper hand over the Mets in 2011 by winning their second World Series title in five years, 2012 featured a triumph over the Redbirds. On June 1, 2012, Johan Santana pitched against the Cardinals at Citi Field. Nine innings later, he and his teammates celebrated on the mound, reacting jubilantly to the first no-hitter in team history. This game, despite its controversies, was a truly joyous moment for the franchise in Flushing, and a major recent win in their rivalry with St. Louis.
