My grandfather was at every single world series game in 69 and 86, he and my great grandfather were big Dodgers fans before they moved, RIP Grandpa. My mothers side was all Giants fans, and my Dads was Dodgers, now unified with the Mets.

[@josecarranza7555]

Many Brooklyn Dodgers fans stayed Dodgers fans despite moving.

[@addymetbecks94]

@@josecarranza7555 not all, the dodgers flew across the country

[@josecarranza7555]

@@addymetbecks94 I know. Some Brooklyn Dodgers fans stayed being Dodgers fans even their offsprings. There's a Facebook group called New York Dodgers fans, I'm part of. I know this guy who said he was a Brooklyn Dodgers fan in the 50's and stopped being a Dodgers fan after Sandy Koufax retired and he became a Yankees fan.

[@ericsigersmith6067]

People forget nolan Ryan and Casey stengel

[@josecarranza7555]

Eric Sigersmith Forget what exactly ?

[@manhbx96]

I’m a lifelong fan of the New York Mets I lean more towards 1986 but 1969 will always be legendary

[@Frenite]

I wish we could experience something like that today for the Mets.

[@jamessollazzo4860]

no swoboda catch, biggest play in the series!!

[@martinespino4077]

I was born in ´72. This is amazing footage for me. Best regards from Mexico. #LFGM

[@4MDK]

Sorry-but you have to includes Swoboda's catch in game 4. It was one of the best World Series catches ever!

[@lancep4164]

Absolutely

[@georgeanthony7282]

I can't argue with that! I was in the 6th grade.. watching it all at the library...where someone brought in a tv for many kids to see the game... anyway, I didn't think Ron Swoboda had a chance... but he did catch it... a miracle in itself... since "Rocky" wasn't necessarily known as a great outfielder... but the reat as they say, is history!!!!

[@superchillification]

Where’s Ron Swobodas catch?

[@Pensfan1618]

Simon Rosenbluth I was wondering the same thing! How could they not include it here???

[@ericsigersmith6067]

Hey they got nolan ryan footage

[@LiveFromThePorcelainPalace]

So... Ron Swoboda's catch in Game 4 wasn't good enough to be included?

[@kjay1022]

I couldn't agree more. The Swoboda catch was the best catch in World Series history. Better than May's catch. This is a great video but I can't believe they left out that play.

[@LiveFromThePorcelainPalace]

@@kjay1022 I can believe they left it out... Just look at the owners of the team. They don't seem to care much about Mets history from before the 1980's. Why would they hire anyone who does?

[@thequickthinker]

Great video but how can you leave out Swoboda's catch?????????

[@hlcepeda]

They also left out a couple of great catches by Agee! What the heck.

[@wheelinthesky300]

Amazing!

[@MrPete-pe6uk]

you left many of the good plays out

[@stuartdavis798]

Great Video, but the order of highlights in Game 5 was not right. Clendenon hit the homer to knock Jones in after the shoe polish, the Weiss hit the homer and finally Swoboda knocked in the run that made the Mets champions, to paraphrase Lindsey Nelson. Also left out the Swoboda catch. Thanks

[@bobneyland5772]

I miss Shea Stadium. Also Citifield. Lets Go Mets!

[@ericsigersmith6067]

Them and the yankees should have followed the cubs and red sox model of saving the classic stadiums where history has happened

[@robertromeo3765]

The Mets made the greatest catches in world series history. Combine that, with some great pitching and clutch hitting, and they beat the birds four straight.

[@dietpepsivanilla3095]

Orioles got screwed with the shoe polish play and Frank Robinson getting hit, but getting called back.

[@dcahill61]

you left out Ron Swaboda's catch game four ?????????????

[@LiveFromThePorcelainPalace]

Why show the Cleon Jones "shoe polish incident", then cut to Al Weis' home run an inning later, then cut back to Clendenon's home run which immediately followed Jones being hit by the pitch and Hodges coming out of the dugout with the ball? I know the Wilpons don't care about Met history before they bought the team... but this is just stupid

[@ericsigersmith6067]

Willie May's before or after ?

[@LiveFromThePorcelainPalace]

@@ericsigersmith6067 Mays wasn't on the Mets in 1969

[@davidellis5141]

The 🍎 was busy !

[@wiedep]

If clips from NLCS games #2 & 3 where are the complete broadcasts?? If you're gonna show balls hit right at Rod Gaspar then not including Swoboda's catch is a bad bad job guys...
