Mets Fans Get to See What a Win Looks Like Inside Citi Field

Amid rain and wind, the Mets opened their new ballpark with a 4-3 Spring Training win over the Red Sox on Friday. Livan Hernandez had the honor of throwing the first pitch at the park, which saw a decent but not great crowd after a day of poor weather. Carlos Beltran scored the first run for the Mets. The wide concourses that everyone has been raving out got a workout. Between the rain delay and people trying to walk around the park rather than watch the game, they held up well. Every concession stand had a line around it. And Francisco Rodriguez got the first save. He even gave a restrained fist pump. Is that a good omen?
