Joe Christopher, an outfielder on the 1962 expansion New York Mets, died Tuesday in Edgewood, Maryland. He was 87.

The Mets said he died at his home, where he was receiving hospice care.

Christopher made his big league debut with Pittsburgh in 1958 and appeared in three games in the 1960 World Series against the New York Yankees.

He was hit by a pitch from Bob Turley in his only plate appearance and scored in Game 3, then pinch ran and scored in Game 5 and pinch ran again in Game 7.

He was selected by the Mets with their fifth pick in the 1962 expansion draft. He spent four seasons with New York, was traded to Boston and spent a final season with the Red Sox in 1966.
