  • Innovative Lessons from the Miracle Mets of 1969: Part 3 of 3 March 17, 2020 | Written By: Len Ferman
    Published in General Innovative Lessons from the Miracle Mets of 1969: Part 3 of 3 March 17, 2020 | Written by: Len Ferman This is the final post in a 3 part series. Read the first two parts: Part 1 | Part 2 How the Worst Team in Baseball History Innovated to Win the World Series 50 Years Ago The New York Mets of 1969 The New York Mets baseball club of 1969 has come to be known as simply the Miracle Mets. The story of that club is perhaps the closest that major league baseball, or for that matter all of professional sports, has ever come to producing a true to life fairy tale. From Worst to First The Mets first season in 1962 was a record setting campaign in futility. The Mets lost 120 of their 160 games. No major league baseball team before or since has come close to losing that many games. And the losing didn’t stop there. From 1962 – 1968 the Mets lost an average of 105 games per year as they finished in last or second to last place every year. Then, in a stunning reversal of fortune, in that miracle year of 1969, when men first landed on the moon, the Mets won 100 games and won the World Series. The Players Credit Their Manager The players on the 1969 Mets all gave the credit for the amazing turnaround to their manager Gil Hodges. “We were managed by an infallible genius[i]”, said Tom Seaver, the club’s young star pitcher. And leading batter on the team, Clean Jones said, “If we had been managed by anybody else, we wouldn’t have won.
