Kinda weird they chose to use their own logo instead of, idk, a picture of David Wright.
But a nice gesture nonetheless.
And as for what Jake said after the game, that's always who he's been. Humble and doesn't ruffle any feathers. He will never throw a teammate or manager under the bus.
It's frustrating to me as a fan because most of us were there that night for him. Didnt even get s real standing ovation, which he deserved.
And on Friday they said he was pitching Wednesday instead of Thursday because they wanted to leave the possibility of him pitching a few innings on...
Me and everyone else in the stadium were PISSED he didn't come back out. We saw Bruce getting ready to pinch hit and started chanting "We Want David", which then turned in to 'We Want Jake" which ended up becoming "Fire Mickey", hahah.
Still glad I got to see him once and it was probably...
Scored some tix behind the Mets dugout for next Thursday. deGrom's supposed to pitch too.
So naturally they'll probably push him back to Friday.
P.S. 3rd row too. This may be the closest I'll ever do the ol SI tradition.
