National Mustard Museum

It centers on a mustard collection he began in 1986 while despondent over the failure of his favorite baseball team, the Boston Red Sox, to win the 1986 World Series.

2006 National League Championship Series

Reyes became the first Met to lead off with a home run in the first inning of a postseason game since Mets' former outfielder Lenny Dykstra in Game 3 of the 1986 World Series against the Boston Red Sox.

Dale Ford

He was well known for being behind the plate for Game 6 of the 1986 World Series, known for Bill Buckner's error; for tossing Baltimore Orioles Manager Earl Weaver out of a game during the National Anthem; and for ejecting Reggie Jackson from a game only to have Jackson begin throwing all the contents of the dugout onto the playing field.

Larry Whiteside

Whiteside covered many of the most notable events in Boston baseball history, ranging from Bucky Dent's home run to defeat the Boston Red Sox in the 1978 American League East playoff, to the Red Sox losing the 1986 World Series to the New York Mets, to Roger Clemens' second 20-strikeout game.

Mets Classics

These games may include victories from the World Series that the Mets have played in, (such as their dramatic win in 1986, the Bill Buckner error that allowed the 1986 World Series to go to seven games, the first Subway Series game in 1997, or Tom Glavine's 300th career victory).

Wayne Garrett

(Tommie Agee hit one in the 1969 World Series against the Baltimore Orioles; Lenny Dykstra hit his in the 1986 World Series against the Boston Red Sox. Coincidentally, their leadoff home runs, like Garrett's, also occurred in a Game Three.)
