The 1962 Mets went 40-120. They lost more games than any team since 1889. They had two 20-game losers (Roger Craig 10-24) and Al Jackson (8-20). Jackson was tied for second in the league with four shutouts. Jay Hook was 6-19. Craig Anderson was 3-17.
I saw one of the wins at the Polo Grounds. Roger Craig, who went 10-24 that year, pitched for the Mets. Joey Jay, who went 21-14, pitched for the defending National League champion Reds. Here’s the box score.
Jimmy Breslin wrote an excellent book about the season called Can’t Anybody Here Play This Game?
Sad! 
Nah, this year’s Pirates are the worst ever.
