In the first ever NLCS, (1969) the Mets beat the Braves 3 games to none.
After the series, Hank Aaron ran into a scout from the Baltimore Orioles.
The scout told Aaron, "the Orioles were thrilled the Mets had won because they would be an easy mark in the Series.”
Aaron replied, "you might not be happy with what you wish for because the Mets are for real."
