25 April 1963, NEW YORK HERALD TRIBUNE, pg. 27, col. 2--The miracle Mets needed only one hour and 52 minutes in the invigorating atmosphere of Wrigley Field yesterday to regain their winning habits.

27 April 1963, NEW YORK HERALD TRIBUNE, pg. 15, col. 2--The sometimes miraculous Mets had a chance to vault into seventh place in the National League pennant race last night.
