“Knox” (aka as Gary Carter) was a stud… he played the game CORRECTLY … GOD Bless him ❤️❤️

The Kid 👍

"I loathe Keith Hernandez.." -Newman

The “KID” was a SUPERSTAR. RIP…..You were amazing to watch, especially when you were here in Montreal with “nos expos”. ❤️✝️❤️✝️❤️✝️

A great professional athlete is going to be great no matter where you put him.

Very good, Gary.

Loved Gary Carter. What a great baseball player.

Nice plays by Carter at 3rd!! I miss this type of baseball--with strategy. Today's baseball is HRs and strikeouts--and bat flips. The only good thing about the game are the Japanese players--no showboating.

We loved Gary in montreal. We really did. Very nice Californian kid.

I'm 48, a lifelong Reds fan, and Gary Carter is the best catcher I've ever seen play. What a cannon at 3B!!!

LOL. Will never forget when I was a 12 year old kid, I was a defensemen on my hockey team and our goalie went down in the second period. My coach told me I was going into net. I never played goalie in my life!! After the game by team mates jokingly called me Touch Down because I let in 6 goals! It was terrorifying -- BUT, I loved it and switched over to goalie the next year!

We used to call Gary carter Zippy the pinhead

The Mets acquiring Hernandez from the Cardinals and Carter from the Expos were huge factors in their 86 World Series Championship Run.

A pro is a pro. I was in a softball league where the opposition had a retired so-so major leaguer on their team. He was a left-handed shortstop. He made every play look easy, hit massive homers, and made the rest of us look like children by comparison.

Carter looked like brooks Robinson at 3rd

He was no easy out at the plate. I watched him hit nearly a dozen foul balls before driving a base hit to the outfield against a good pitcher. The 1986 Mets were stacked with talent.

It was like he played the position all his life… He was a great player who cared about the game and PLAYED IT CORRECTLY!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Gary Carter and Keith Hernandez were two of the smartest players to ever play. Mets were lucky to have both on the team at the same time.

He did a heck of a job playing 3rd in this game 👍 I never knew this happened 😮

Been thinking of him during the miracle run the 2024 Mets have had thusfar. Hope he's watching.

やっぱり叩くならゴミ箱だよな

Carter stole his arm from the USS Iowa!

What did hesay to the reds dugout I wonder

Great! Thanks for sharing this!

The kid to Hernandez Sweet

As a Cubs fan, I hated those late 80's Mets. But got to admit, they had some great players.

He needed better play from the 1st basemen, whoever that was...

Buddy Bell was out!

Two bunts in the same at bat. You don't see that anymore.

RIP Gary Carter. Great player!

He played third like a regular.

Bottom of the 12th, the Hernandez double play turns 1st & 2nd with nobody out into man on 2nd with two outs. Next play is a fly ball that ends the inning. It's stuff like this that Hernandez did (that wasn't glitzy in the box score in the papers the next day) that saved ballgames. If that bunt gets down, it's 2nd and 3rd with 1 out, and that fly ball wins the game for Cincinnati. But not against the 1986 Mets.

Was this the game where Orosco and McDowell flip-flopped between left field and pitcher?

Thanks for posting -- I had forgotten about Gary Carter playing 3B (almost worth the price of admission). I remember this game for Jesse Orosco and Roger McDowell (2 excellent Met relievers) both being in the game at the same time in extra innings. When a righty was up, McDowell would pitch and when a lefty was batting for the Reds, Orosco would come in (and the other pitcher would go to the outfield -- eg rightfield when a righty was up). Great game, I never saw a manager do that; Davey Johnson should get his due as having done a great job with a great '86 Met team. Classic game and classic season (Pete Rose did a pretty good job with a rebuilding Reds team also that year also).

Classic game.....Gary was awesome as usual...

What an excellent baseball player, as a Red Sox fan, loved Gary Carter

Retire #8 in Queens

Gary Carter didn't make the Hall Of Fame for not only hitting but fielding also rip 1986 world series champion.

Nice rendition

Carter's arm was ridiculous, he threw in straight lines, no arc

Carter was the ultimate professional. RIP

🤪🤪🤪

Sound good but where's the video?

on est loin de la qualité du morceau d'origine

Beautiful.

Miss you, Kid!😢😊

As the old baseball saying goes, “the ball will always find you.”

Coolest thing was Buddy Bell beatin out that play at first . Slowest guy on Reds team.

Here's to Mr. GARY CARTER, the original "The Kid" Sorry Ken Griffey Jr. ........P.S. I met Gary Carter at small card show in Palm Beach Gardens, FL in 1996. All of the money he made went to the Leukemia society. He didn't charge much. He had a special personal baseball card made up that had his favorite Bible verse on the back. I asked him if he could sign it "The Kid," and he did so, no problem. I also asked him on his opinion on whether or not Ted Simmons should be In the Hall Of Fame, and he said YES he thought so, but he said he didn't think Simmons had enough homeruns. I'm sure Gary Carter voted for Ted Simmons, Hall of Fame..... Thank You, Gary.......
