Who's the Met?

One mystery Met a day. Six guesses โ€” every guess fills the grid: green is an exact match, yellow is close (same position group, debut within five years, or same birth country).

Guesses left: 6


        
      

Best of the Day: fewest guesses takes the crown (5 pts ยท 2nd 3 pts ยท 3rd 1 pt). Stumped counts as 7. Scores count toward the Arcade leaderboard for members of The Korner Arcade group โ€” join free on kinerskorner.com. Everyone can play; members' scores count.

The Korner Grid

The 3ร—3 grid with a Mets twist: every answer played for the Mets and fits the row and column. Nine guesses total โ€” and the more obscure your pick, the lower your rarity score. Lower wins.

Guesses left: 9 ยท Rarity score: 0


        
      

Best of the Day: lowest rarity score takes the crown (5 pts ยท 2nd 3 pts ยท 3rd 1 pt). Honor system โ€” no peeking at Baseball-Reference. Scores count toward the Arcade leaderboard for members of The Korner Arcade group โ€” join free on kinerskorner.com.
