Celebratory Day at City Field, opening day for the Mets.

Two and two, the count.

Pitch to Alvarez hit in the air to deep left field.

Forget it.

This one sails into the second deck behind the 358 mark.

A home run to left field for Alvarez as he goes back to back with Benj.

And the Mets now lead 11 to 5. And that was how he rose with the call on Mets Odyssey Radio, part of an 11-7 win for the Mets as they beat the Pirates. Of course, the bad first inning for Pittsburgh with O'Neill Cruz and center field. But so be it. So the back-to-back home runs, Alvarez and Benge for Carson Benge. That was his first big league day, his first big league home run, and he says such an amazing afternoon.

I just got chills, you know, that this is where I'm supposed to be and just having fun every day playing baseball.

And he did have fun, and he was in right field where in the later innings, things started flying out of the sky like a dead bird as he was

trying to figure things out i don't know i just looked down i was like looked around it's kind of like

is anyone going to grab this and then no one was looking at it so i was like all right i'm not about

to stop the game for it i was just sitting there eating it and then i saw it. He was like, you're going to come pick this up? And they're in there chanting to pick it up. They're having a big old laugh. It's a bird, you moron. Damn, it was a dead bird out there? Yeah, birds collided. And one didn't make it and went drop straight down.

I don't know if the other one is, you know, maybe in the hospital.

But the, yeah, the one didn't make it.

Wow.

Hey, let's go to John and Lindenhurst.

John, what's happening?

Hey, good morning, boys.

Happy Friday.

Yeah, you too.

Thanks, man. So I had a question. Happy Friday. Yeah, you too. Thanks, man.

So I had a question actually for Jerry.
