Reconfigured Mets culture is taking over in Queens
NY Post
Leadoff man extraordinaire Francisco Lindor, heating up much earlier this year than usual, slammed a home run off the facing of the upper deck to start the Mets half of the first inning. The crowd, predictably, went nuts.
Jesse Winker put one into orbit to start the second. More cheers.
Lindor made it two home runs for him five innings later, blasting one to right-center, almost the very spot visited by Winker. Delirium now!
Happy noise is the soundtrack for a dream Mets beginning.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
