Analysis: In 1973, the Mets were 61-71 at the end of August.  They made it to a seventh game of the World Series.  Granted, the competition that year was quite bad.  But miracles can happen.  And that's all that needs to be said.  

That, and, oh, David Wright getting hit in the head.  Unbelievable.  David - next time you get chin music, you better charge the mound.
