I Almost Threw a No-No
to the tune of I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas

I almost threw a no-no back on May 4th
Maybe you got to see me pitch the game
It was on the road, at Busch against the Cards
And the one hit that they got wasn't hit so very hard
I almost threw a no-no back on May 4th
The pitcher Ray Sadecki layed a bunt
It came in the third, it went for a hit
'Cause Boyer in the hot corner was playing back a bit.
The New York Mets still haven't had a no-no thrown yet
I wish that it could have been me
I would have made Met history
And they'd be proud to claim me as a Met
I almost threw a no-no back on May 4th
But nobody else remembers anymore
A bunch of other guys did the same thing too
In Mets history, there's been twenty-two,
It seems a pretty common thing to do.
