During the Mets’ home opener yesterday afternoon at Citi Field, Gary Cohen, Keith Hernandez, and Ron Darling were loving what they were seeing from Francisco Lindor on the field, as the shortstop was enthusiastically encouraging his teammates and reminding them about what to do in certain situations. And after the game, with COVID-19 vaccines available to the team, Lindor demonstrated leadership, too, agreeing to receive the vaccine and have his photo taken in the process for the Mets to publicize.
Lindor was not alone, as manager Luis Rojas and teammates Joey Lucchesi and Miguel Castro got vaccinated and had their photos published by the Mets, too.
