You'll be talking about Mets 8 and Braves 7 for years: astride water coolers, in bars, whenever you're in the company of other Mets fans. And it is likely that this will lead to other related issues of great importance.

Was this the biggest regular season game in Mets history? You could choose to thoroughly comb through all 9,963 Mets games on Retrosheet to find out, or just rely on what's pretty obvious: Yes, that was it for sure.

Was Francisco Lindor's one-out, two-run, ninth-inning home run on Monday the greatest home run in Mets history? This is a bit more subjective. Here is a man's list and a man's command. I'm happy to hear that the lists will almost certainly be completely different than yours:

10. Daniel Murphy, Game 5, 2015 NLDS

His solo strike against Zack Greinke in Game 5 of the 2015 NLDS at Dodger Stadium was the swing that gave the Mets victory in that series.

9. Darryl Strawberry, Game 5, 1986 NLCS

Hits a Nolan Ryan seed that allows them to push the Astros to extra innings and a critical win.

8. Lenny Dykstra, Game 3, 1986 NLCS

Brought the Mets back with a two-run walk-off blast against Houston's Dave Smith that gave them a 2-1 lead in games.

7. Al Weis, Game 5, 1969 World Series

Also the least likely, since he only hit seven other home runs in his ten-year career. But in the seventh game the score was 3-0 and the miracle could become a reality.

6. Benny Agbayani, Game 3, 2000 NLDS

Gives the Mets a 3-2 walk-off win over the Giants' Aaron Fultz in the 13th inning, setting up a decisive victory the next day.

5. Mike Piazza, September 21, 2001

Less baseball-related than any of the others, but in a category of its own for greater impact.

4. Robin Ventura, Game 5, 1999 NLCS

Technically not a home run because Todd Pratt intercepted it on his triumphant walk through the bases, but everyone saw the ball pass Shea's right field wall.

3. Pratt, Game 4, 1999 NLDS

He replaced an ailing Piazza and won the series for the Mets against Arizona with a Matt Mantei home run to center off Shea.

2. Lindor, Monday

Given the stakes and the fact that the team had suffered a kneecap in the previous inning. Maybe it's a recency bias. Time will tell.

1. Ray Knight, Game 7, 1986 World Series

Knight's seventh-inning shot off Calvin Schiraldi only clinched the Mets' victory in the World Series. Until there is another one, this one has to stay at number 1.

(Honorable mention: Donn Clendenon, 1969, an inning before Weis and immediately after the Cleon Jones “shoe polish” incident; Strawberry off the clock in St. Louis, 1985; Kirk Nieuwenhuis/Kelly Johnson vs. the Nats, September 2015; Wilmer Flores' “tears of joy” against Washington, July 31, 2015; Brandon Nimmo in the eighth inning on Monday (David Wright's blast) in Game 3 of the 2015 World Series has never been louder.
