This model depicted the windup of David Cone, who led MLB in strikeouts twice during his 7 seasons as a Met. In the final game of the 1991 regular season, Cone rung up 19 Philadelphia Phillies, tying a franchise record set by Tom Seaver. Cone earned the complete-game win in the 7-0 shutout on the road.
