With the seats at Citi Field near capacity in anticipation to see Javier Báez play in his first game for his new Club, “El Mago” did nothing but put on a show. The 28-year-old shortstop left the yard in the bottom of the sixth inning with a towering moonshot that sent Queens into pandemonium. Báez crushed a hanging breaking ball, delivered from Wade Miley, and sent it well into the left-field seats for a two-run home run. The New York Mets would go on to win, 5-4, over the Cincinnati Reds in extra innings.
