Seaver said on MLB Network in 2010 that he actually said to Ted Simmons on the on-deck circle, “I don’t want to face you.” Simmons and Seaver were friends and Simmons had great success against Seaver.
I will never forget Seavers return to shea in 83, my big bro talking pitching with him outside shea and filling out cards for the V.A. with him at citi-field! God bless you Mr. Seaver. RIP❤.
George Hendrick made the last out. Six years later, Mario Soto was one strike away from a no hitter and again George Hendrick was the potential last batter. He smashed a home run. Reds won 2-1; Soto got the win on a one hitter.
Seaver told Bob Costas in an MLB Network interview to watch his eyes during that moment. Because Seaver was actually gesturing towards Ted Simmons and reportedly said “I don’t want to face you.”
I love Tom Terrific, but ex Met David Cone hurled a perfect game while with the Yankees. Doc Gooden no hit a Seattle lineup that included Edgar Martinez, ARod and Junior Griffey. Plus, a man named Nolan Ryan???
Seaver was a hero of us all. Watching this clip, I'm glad they've speeded up the game. It was like watching glue dry. He was no longer an overpowering pitcher like a decade earlier.
OMG! Im watching again for the 3rd time to make sure Tom can pull it out again!
Tom Seaver was awesome! A gentleman and credit to the game as well!🙂🙂
Hello
Anyone notice he smiles after he missed high pitching to the last batter?
Yep. I loved that.
Now I did.
Nice catch cousin

Hello are you doing
Tom said on Reds TV that Ted Simmons was heckling him from the on deck circle. They were good friends.
Rip

Joe Nuxhall and Tom Brennanan, I can never forget their names. Listening to so many Big Red Machine games in the late 70’s on the radio with my dad.
Legend. My favorite baseball player of all time. RIP.
One of the best pitching motions (wind up ) ever . Great professional

My favourite player ever
truly a class act...even suffering from dementia...never complained
That was a great, back and forth at bat between a couple HOFers, Seaver and Brock
I could never get used to Tom wearing a Reds uniform
Day I was born
Not a single time did Marty Brenneman mention pitch count. Seaver. What a great pitcher.
Tom "Terrific" Seaver!
How are you doing 😊
Why did Tom smile at the St. Louis benchnunder the brim of his cap with Hendrick up, after a sailing high fastball?
Because it was one pitch away from being a no hitter.
"Man, almost blew that one," I imagined him thinking.
Seaver told Bob Costas in an MLB Network interview to watch his eyes during that moment. Because Seaver was actually gesturing towards Ted Simmons and reportedly said “I don’t want to face you.”
He always said this wasn’t in the top ten of his best games, amazing artist.⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️
The only "Met" ever to throw a real no no.
You're statement makes absolutely no sense at all.

@@mattdon2164 agree on all.
@@mattdon2164 Johan Santana threw a no hitter
I love it
Always a Met
Looks like crowd was in a hurry to get home to watch The Golden Girls. If Seaver did that at Shea, the fans would never let him leave.
How are you doing
the original tom terrific
If I remember correctly he lost three no hitters in the 9th while with the Mets. One on a broken bat single with two outs.
How are you doing
That was a perfect game bid against the Cubs. Jimmy Qualls broke it up
Dave Roberts would have taken him out after seven
That’s not fair. Come on. Roberts would have taken him out after 5. 😉
The best Pitcher in Post Pearl Harbor. Checks all the boxes.............CHECKS ALL THE BOXES, NO WEAKNESS IN HIS GAME...........JUST TERRIFIC!!
Seaver should have been wearing a Mets uniform & it should have been at Shea.
should have happened in a Mets uniform
How are you doing
This was pitched a year and a day after he was traded from the NY Mets
How are you doing
The Mets got a bunch of nothings for Tom Seaver! A-holes! ❤you tom!
How are you doing
Bench wasn't catching, and, apparently Rose was not playing third ... I wonder why ....
One of the great crimes in baseball history - it should have been as a Met, but alas it wasn't. He will forever be a Met.
Too bad he didn't pitch a no-hitter while he was with the Mets!
He is the Greatest Met of time! A Major reason of the 69 Mircacle Mets. The first of his 3 Cy Youngs. Rip# Tom Terrific#
Had one in 69 broke up with 2 outs in 9th. Think it was on july 9th.
@@patricksevers8012 one out and a perfect game in 69.
How are you doing 😊
@@juangarcia-ml1byhow are you doing 😊
no graphics. no pitch count
