Being a long time Mets fan, even during their heroic struggles of the '70s, I can answer the question about who got hit by the ball in that game.

It was Cleon Jones and it was a pitch that hit him. Gil Hodges was the manager and argued emphatically that the pitch hit his player. I believe that Cleon went on to score a run that inning and it led to the eventual win in that game.

Makes you think what the cost of a can of shoe polish can do for you.
