The wait is finally over - Thursday is Opening Day at Citi Field! And with the start of the new season, we're also excited for the return of the Citi Community Home Runs program for its 5th year! The program aims to fight childhood hunger in NYC and across the U.S. For every home run the Mets hit at Citi Field this season, Citi will donate enough to No Kid Hungry to provide 20,000 meals to children in need.
This year, Todd Frazier will serve as the new Mets ambassador for the program. A New Jersey native and familiar face to all baseball fans in NYC, Frazier is excited about his new role with the program and said, "As a father myself, I am very passionate about supporting an organization that not only looks out for the children in our community, but works to pave the way for their future success.
