Revised Goal
7 games to go in the 1984 Dwight Gooden season replay.
Doesn’t look like it’ll be done by the end of August.
New goal is to finish by mid-September.
A couple of other non-sport games are arriving in the next week or so, which means I’ll be busy checking those out as well.
Federation & Empire drew a lot of attention away from the Gooden replay.
Stay tuned!
1984: Dwight Gooden, Game 24
August 17, 1984: Mets vs. Giants @ Candlestick Park
Final from Candlestick Park:
I was looking forward to rolling this game. It didn’t quite turn out to be the pitcher’s duel that the real game turned out to be. On the contrary, it was a slugfest.
The Giants took an early lead and knocked Gooden out of the game. The Mets countered with a George Foster grand slam, knocking Krukow out and taking the lead, but the Giants rallied for 2 in the bottom of the 7th and got the win.
Next opponent: Gooden vs. Hawkins @ Jack Murphy Stadium
Stay tuned!
