Anthony Young Finally Gets A WIN!!

Remember when Pitcher Anthony Young finally was able see a big W next to his name in the boxscore after 27 straight L’s? Hard to blame him for all the losses though, when the Mets were pretty miserable in ‘92 & ‘93, losing 193 games over those seasons. Young had a 4.36 e.r.a with 16 saves and four holds over the span of his 77 appearances between May of ‘92 and July of ‘93, but getting that elusive win just wasn’t working out for Anthony. That first win would come on July 28th, 1993 when as a reliever he was awarded the W after Eddie Murray hit a walk-off double in the bottom of the ninth to give the Mets a 5-4 win over the Florida Marlins. R.I.P. Anthony
