""They're not going to be happy, that's not a secret. Our fan base, they're going to let you know when you're not playing well.""
""It's not going to be good, which is justifiably so -- we're not playing well whatsoever.""
""I think if they can get it going today, I think the fans will rally around them.""
""You wouldn't be here tonight if you weren't a Met fan.""
The New York Mets returned home to a sparse crowd as they sought to break an 11-game losing streak, the longest since 2004. Manager Carlos Mendoza acknowledged the fans' dissatisfaction with the team's performance. Pitcher Sean Manaea anticipated a negative reception, while shortstop Francisco Lindor expected a loud atmosphere. The few fans present only became vocal when Lindor hit a three-run homer. The Mets struggled offensively, hitting .200 during the losing streak, but hope was renewed with the expected return of slugger Juan Soto.
