The home run worked. Jeff McNeil is officially a doggie daddy.
McNeil has his dog after the Mets utility man hit a three-run homer Friday after FaceTiming with his wife and asking to adopt a puppy he saw during North Shore Animal League America event at Citi Field. He and his wife posted a photo with the pooch on his social media Saturday afternoon before the Mets took on the Pirates.
“Happy to announce a new addition to the McNeil family!!!,” McNeil wrote on Instagram. “Thank you @animalleague for all that you do and can’t wait to bring her home!
