On October 27, 1986, the Mets took the decisive Game 7 to win their second world championship. Showing heart and determination symbolic of that memorable season, the Mets rallied from a 3-0 deficit to win 8-5. Pitcher Sid Fernandez stopped Boston's momentum with 2.1 shutout innings in relief. First baseman Keith Hernandez had three RBI and third baseman Ray Knight hit a clutch home run.
The Citi Field Fanwalk provides fans the opportunity to recognize their families, friends, and favorite Mets memories. The first offering of twenty sections of 18,000 bricks directly outside the Jackie Robinson Rotunda was installed prior to the inaugural season at the new Mets home in 2009. The Fanwalk was extended with twelve additional sections down the first base and third base lines the following year with Citi Field Fanwalk: Amazin’ Moments bricks commemorating great moments in Mets history. The first two editions of Citi Field Fanwalk bricks sold out with fans purchasing more than 24,000 bricks. For the 2012 season, the Mets expanded the Fanwalk to include a new offering of bricks in honor of the franchise’s 50th anniversary to be installed for the 2012 season along the first and third base sides of the ballpark outside the Hodges VIP and Seaver VIP entrances. Net proceeds from each brick purchase was donated to the Mets Foundation, which distributes the funds to area charities.
Citi Field was completed in 2009, replacing the adjacent Shea Stadium as the home of the New York Mets. Designed by Populous (formerly HOK Sport) and named after Citigroup, the $850 million ballpark saw its first action with a college baseball gaqme between St. John's and Georgetown on March 29, 2009. The Mets played their first two games at the ballpark on April 3 and April 4, 2009 against the Boston Red Sox as charity exhibition games. The first regular season home game was played on April 13, 2009, against the San Diego Padres.

James Russell Howard III (born March 26, 1984) is an American professional ice hockey goalie who is currently playing for the Detroit Red Wings of the National Hockey League (NHL). Howard was runner up in voting for the Calder Memorial Trophy following the 2009–10 NHL season as the NHL's rookie of the year.
On April 14, 2010, Howard played in his first NHL playoff game, a 3–2 loss to the Phoenix Coyotes. On April 20, he recorded his first career playoff shutout, making 29 saves in a 3–0 win over the Coyotes. The Coyotes were eliminated by the Red Wings when Howard's first NHL playoff series went to seven games. The Detroit Red Wings were then eliminated by the San Jose Sharks in five games. Howard recorded a 2.75 goals against average with a .915 save percentage during the postseason.
Howard was also a 2010 Calder Memorial Trophy finalist, but was runner-up to Buffalo's Tyler Myers. Howard won the 2010 Detroit Red Wings-Detroit Sports Broadcasters Association Rookie of the Year Award.
Howard recorded a 21 save shutout in Detroit's season opener against the Anaheim Ducks to kick off the 2010–11 NHL season. On February 28, 2011, Howard signed a two-year contract extension with the Red Wings worth $2.25 million per season. The Red Wings lost in seven games to the San Jose Sharks in the 2nd round of the playoffs.
On January 23, 2012, in the Red Wings 49th game, Jimmy Howard recorded his 30th win of the season, before the All-Star break. The win was Detroit's 17th consecutive home victory and kept them in first place in the standings. Howard would win only five more games after the All-Star break, because of a broken finger on his stick hand suffered on February 3, 2012, that made him miss eight games, and a reoccurring groin injury later in the season that scratched him in seven other games.
During the lockout-shortened 2012–13 NHL season, Howard recorded a 21–13–7 record as the Red Wings eventually clinched their 22nd consecutive playoff berth. On April 16, 2013, Howard signed a six-year, $31.8 million contract extension with the Red Wings.
During the 2014–15 NHL season, Howard recorded a 16–7–7 record, with a 2.11 GAA and a .921 save percentage prior to the All-Star break. Howard was named to the NHL All-Star Game, however he was unable to participate due to suffering a groin tear on January 10, in a game against the Washington Capitals, and missed five weeks of the season. Following his return from his injury, Howard recorded a 7–6–4 record, with 2.99 GAA and a .896 save percentage.
Howard's performance declined further in the 2015-16 season, and youngster Petr Mrazek got more starts throughout the season than Howard. However, on April 6, 2016, Howard recorded his 22nd shutout victory in franchise history against the Philadelphia Flyers in a 3-0 game at Joe Louis Arena moving him to fourth.

The Cougars rattled off their 10th straight BC Major Midget League win on Sunday afternoon, dispatching the Thompson Blazers 5-1 at Kin 1. The first-place Cougars, 19-2-1 on the year, have only conceded eight goals during their current streak - including a pair of shutout wins.
Justin Almeida with a pair led the way, while Todd Bredo, Keith Redden, and Riley Coish also scored for the Cougars on Sunday. Tyler Ward replied for the Blazers.
The Cougars have now won 15 of their past 16 games, outscoring their opponents 99-25 during that span.
Almeida got things going at 6:17 of the first, taking a feed from Chase DuBois and expertly placing a snap shot past Blazers goalie Aris Anagnostopoulos. Bredo made it 2-0 just over a minute later with a bouncing backhander finding its way through traffic in front at 7:27. Colton Thomas had the lone assist.
Bredo also set up the third goal of the period with a powerful point shot, Redden buried the rebound at 9:46, with Austin Gray also picking up a helper on the power play goal.
Almeida potted his second of the game at 9:06 of the second, converting a rebound after a scrambly play in front of the Blazers' net. Wesley Shipton and Zack Smith got the assists.
Coish capitalized on a rebound off an Alex Hanson shot at 10:10 of the third to score his second of the weekend. Jeremy Gervais also got an assist.
Ward ended the Cougars' shutout streak at 13:58 of the third, tipping a shot over Dorrin Luding's shoulder. Matthew Facchinelli and Garrett Ewart got the assists.
Luding and Griffin Outhouse had combined for a shutout streak of 189 minutes and six seconds, dating back to last weekend's games against the Okanagan Rockets.
Luding finished Sunday's game with 19 saves, Anagnostopoulos had 63.

Ravens Shutout Cleveland, 16-0

AFRO Sports Editor
(November 18, 2009) - The Baltimore Ravens regained a little ground in the AFC North Division after shutting out the Cleveland Browns, 16-0, on Nov. 16 on Ohio. It was the second time this season Baltimore has beaten the struggling Browns. The road win advanced the Ravens’ record to 5-4 overall (2-2 division wise) and placed them two games behind the AFC North leading Cincinnati Bengals. Here’s how the game played out:
The Ravens secured the victory when…
Baltimore safety Dawan Landry intercepted a Brady Quinn pass and returned it 48 yards for a defensive touchdown, pushing the Ravens ahead, 13-0, with the majority of the third quarter remaining. There was plenty of time left in the game, but it didn’t matter because Cleveland’s offense was completely bottled up by the Ravens’ defense.
Outstanding player(s) of the game:
Ravens tailback Ray Rice rushed for a game-high 89 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries, and also caught three passes for 15 yards. Rice has recorded at least 100 yards from scrimmage in six straight games and in seven of nine games played this season.
Ravens star linebacker Ray Lewis finished the game with a team-high seven tackles, while teammate Dawan Landry added four tackles and a momentum-shifting interception.
More game notes:
The Ravens may have reversed their Monday Night Football curse on Nov. 16 as they won a game aired on Monday night for the first time in six tries. Baltimore is now 5-7 all-time on Monday nights.
The Browns and Ravens were tied at zero at halftime, marking the first time this season a game has been scoreless at the half break.
Ravens reserve safety Haruki Nakamura broke his right ankle on the game-opening kickoff and will miss the remainder of the season. His teammate, Terrell Suggs, was also banged up later in the game and didn’t return; he will be out in next week’s game. Browns return specialist Josh Cribbs was injured on the final play of the game and was taken to the hospital.
The Ravens released kicker Steve Hauschka on Nov. 17. Hauschka has missed three critical field goals this season, so the team decided to replace him with newly acquired veteran kicker Billy Cundiff.
The Ravens will learn whether they’re capable of reaching the playoffs when they take on Peyton manning and the undefeated Indianapolis Colts (9-0) at M&T Bank Stadium on Nov. 22.

As the 1952 season approached, it had been more than a half-century since the soon-to-be 78-year-old Honus Wagner first began his big-league career with the Louisville Colonels as a young, multi-positional star. (He also pitched, striking out six over eight shutout innings.) By the time of his 1917 retirement, Wagner—described by John McGraw as "the greatest player in baseball history"—held a slew of modern (post-1892) National League records: 3,420 hits, 643 doubles, 252 triples, 1,732 RBI, 1,739 runs scored, 723 stolen bases, and eight batting titles among them.
Often referred to as "Mr. Shortstop" (a moniker he shared with Bobby Wallace) the burly, bow-legged—yet amazingly agile—"freak of nature" still ranks fourth at the position in career putouts and eleventh in Range Factor-per-game. As one unidentified scribe put it: "[Wagner] walks like a crab, plays like an octopus and hits like the devil."
Deeply in debt and eager to return to the game he loved, Wagner was hired on as a Pirates' coach in 1933. The affable Dutchman soon became a beloved fixture during spring training, doling out baseball wisdom and grandfatherly advice to rookies and veterans alike. By the late-1940s, Wagner's health had begun to fail; he was no longer able to attend spring workouts—though he stubbornly remained on as a coach during the regular season.
"I won't quit baseball until it quits me," declared Wagner following a health scare in 1950. Hospitalized again in December 1951, he remained optimistic about returning, but by mid-February, Hans—at the insistence of doctors—announced his retirement. Pirates' General Manager Branch Rickey, who procured a pension for Wagner, declared his uniform (#33) retired forever.
On February 15, 1952, a group of newspapermen and photographers descended upon Wagner's modest home in Carnegie, Pennsylvania.
"Shucks, how about that," chuckled Honus, grinning ear-to-ear as he answered the door. "Guess old Father Time has caught up with me. Never knew anybody to retire so young. " Wagner then collapsed into an easy chair, a large wad of chewing tobacco visible in his jaw, as he prepared to be interviewed. Following a few questions about his health, the talk turned to his playing days.
Though he stole the show during Pittsburgh's victory over the Tigers in the 1909 World Series, Hans said that "the biggest thrill of my life" came in 1900, when he hit a double in his final at-bat to beat out Elmer Flick "by a mere percentage point" to win his first National League batting crown. (The records show that Wagner was mistaken: he hit .381, a full 14 points better than Flick's .367 mark, though it had remained a close race going into the final days of the season.)
As the reporters on hand looked over Wagner's impressive collection of trophies and mementos that nearly enveloped the small but well-kept parlor, Honus pointed out his favorite of the bunch—a large silver loving cup awarded to him for pacing the majors with a .354 batting average in 1908. The trophy was presented by Vaudeville star Honeyboy Evans. "See that cup," exclaimed Wagner. "Honeyboy bought the cup with the idea of giving it to his friend, Ty Cobb, but I beat Cobb out that year and got it!"
"Who was the toughest pitcher you ever faced?" asked an Associated Press reporter. Honus thought for a bit, before listing a who's who of legendary hurlers: Christy Mathewson, Cy Young, Pete Alexander, Rube Waddell.
"Those pitchers were great," explained Wagner, "but I could always hit them. The guy who had me going was a bullpen pitcher for the Chicago Cubs—Jack Taylor. . . . [H]e was always the toughest for me to hit. It looked like I ought to knock his pitches seven miles, but for five years, I couldn't do anything with him. Finally, I got so disgusted I turned around and batted left-handed against him. It worked: I got a three-bagger, and my luck against Taylor changed!"
The AP scribe then asked Wagner about Branch Rickey, who had awarded him a lifetime pass to games at Forbes Field in appreciation for his 37 years of service to the club.
"Do you know what Mr. Rickey told me?" asked Honus. "He said I could sit anywhere in the ballpark. Upstairs, downstairs, center-field, right-field, any place. How about that?" As if on cue, Wagner's devoted wife, Bessie, chimed in: "Guess he'll never be the same now. Baseball is all he ever knew." Sensing a bit of sadness in his wife's statement, Honus chirped: "It still is great to be alive. . . . I still love baseball. It looks like the game gets bigger and better every year!"
As the interview drew to a close, Wagner—eager to put his newly acquired season tickets to use—flashed a buoyant smile and exclaimed: "See you on opening day!"

Andrew Eugene Pettitte (born June 15, 1972) is an American baseball starting pitcher who has played 17 seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB), primarily for the New York Yankees. He has won five World Series championships with the Yankees and is a three-time All-Star. He ranks as MLB's all-time postseason wins leader with 19.
Pettitte was drafted by the Yankees organization in 1990, and he signed with them a year later. After debuting in the major leagues in 1995, Pettitte finished third in voting for the American League (AL) Rookie of the Year Award. In 1996, he led the AL with 21 wins and was runner-up for the AL Cy Young Award, and two years later, he was named the Yankees' Opening Day starter. Pettitte established himself as one of the "Core Four" players who contributed to the Yankees' late-1990s dynasty that produced four championships. Pettitte won the 2001 AL Championship Series Most Valuable Player (MVP) Award in helping his team win the pennant. After spending nine seasons with the Yankees—a stint in which he won at least 12 games each season—Pettitte signed with the Houston Astros in 2004. He rejoined the Yankees in 2007 and later that season admitted to using human growth hormone earlier in his career. After four more seasons and an additional World Series title, he retired after the 2010 season. Pettitte returned to baseball in 2012.
