A lot has happened since the New York Mets last played at Citi Field.
An 11-game stretch away from home -- with the last three games decided in the final two innings -- has brought the Mets from the regular-season home stretch through the NL Wild Card Series and into the NLDS.
With the team's showdown against the Phillies tied 1-1 and shifted to Queens on Tuesday for Citi Field's first divisional series game since 2015, a familiar purple face is back in town to try to coax a little more magic out of a team that has thrived on superstitious runs and unconventional good-luck charms.
