New York Mets Artwork: Unisex NuBlend® Hooded Sweatshirt By Vintage Brand™ not affiliated with or sponsored by New York Mets "Ya Gotta Believe!" is a rallying cry that has become synonymous with the New York Mets and their history. The phrase was coined by Mets relief pitcher Tug McGraw during the team's improbable run to the World Series in 1973. The Mets had struggled for much of the season, but rallied in September to clinch the National League East division title. In the playoffs, they faced the heavily favored Cincinnati Reds, who had won the World Series the previous year. Despite being down three games to two in the best-of-seven series, the Mets won the final two games, with McGraw closing out both games with dominant relief performances. After the final out, McGraw famously exclaimed, "Ya Gotta Believe!" in a postgame interview, inspiring the team and their fans. Though the Mets ultimately lost the World Series to the Oakland Athletics, the "Ya Gotta Believe!" slogan became an enduring symbol of the team's never-say-die spirit and resilience. In the decades since, the Mets have had their ups and downs, but the "Ya Gotta Believe!" slogan has remained a touchstone for the team and its fans, representing the hope and optimism that come with every new season.
