The Mets: "Electricity on the sidewalks"

“I'm not a native New Yorker. You know, I'm here three or four days a week each week. I am stunned at the electricity on the sidewalks and in the stores about the Mets, and about baseball in general, but specifically about the Mets. Last night, we were on a text chain, four or five other people during the game texting back and forth. The bases are loaded, and one of the text members, just a one-line text: ‘I feel a grand slam from Lindor.’ And boom. I mean, that's the Mets’ season, and Francisco Lindor is symbolic of the Mets, I think. He's a calming presence when you hear him interviewed, he's a calming presence at the plate, and you just have a confidence and a joy in what he brings to the game each and every day,” says veteran columnist Mike Barnicle during this Morning Joe conversation with Willie Geist and Jonathan Lemire about the New York Mets having reached the National League Championship Series with a 4-1 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies due to Francisco Lindor hitting a grand slam in the sixth inning during the 2024 Major League Baseball playoffs.
