Best Game Ever at Citi Field?

We're starting to amass a body of great games here. What are your nominees? Mine would include - [list:16dspnlw]The Johan No Hitter Steven Matz's debut The 11-game winning streak's Thursday finale Dickey's 20th win[/list:u:16dspnlw] Among these, the Matz game is my personal favorite.

A couple of other favorites: Dickey's one-hitter against the Phillies, August 14, 2010. Mets defeat Yankees on the night Rivera is "honored;" he blows save and loses game without recording an out. May 28, 2013 --- The no-hitter is still the clear choice for #1, I think. If they win tonight, maybe not.

August 8, 2011, Mets score five in the eighth and ninth to take a back-and-forther with the Padres. Mike Baxter debuts with a pinch-RBI double in the eighth, leading to a fiesta breaking out among a huge contingent of ticket-holding Baxters and Baxter supporters. Offensive game starts with a leadoff homer by Pagan and ends on a two-run walk off grounder by Duda. Mets somehow survive gasoline-on-the-fire relief work by Pedro Beato and Ryota Igarashi. Starting for the Padres that day? New Met Tim Stauffer!

There've been good games, fun games, entertaining games, milestone games, memorable games before. But there have never been big games until now.

Santana's no-no stands head and shoulders above anything the Mets have ever done at Citi, IMO. A post season classic could change that.

Was it Igarashi he was decrying in the Met fan movie?
