After defeating Atlanta in the wild-card playoff, they eliminated the Nationals in five games in the division series and lost Game 7 of the NLCS to the Giants after taking a 3-1 series lead.
With one out in the seventh inning, Yadier Molina, whose home run in Game 7 of the 2006 NLCS dashed the Mets' World Series hopes, did his best to thwart their no-hit bid.
