The New York Mets are one of the hottest teams in baseball. They have won five games in a row and are winners of 16 of their first 23 games. The momentum is high in Queens as the Mets look to build off their NLCS run in the 2024 season.

Lindor homered twice — once to begin the game and once to all but end it — in a game a bit reminiscent of last October.
