Mets: Playoff-like atmosphere at Citi Field for David Wright’s final game

The smell of Italian Sausage filters through the brisk September air. The restroom lines are outrageously long. The New York Mets faithful are loud and ready to rock and roll. It’s David Wright night at Citi Field.

With a total of 43,928 fans at Citi Field, the attendance was the sixth largest regular-season crowd in Citi Field’s nine-year history.

The night opens up with a bang. Wright’s adorable Olivia Shea Wright throws out the first pitch to her father and our captain, Mr. Wright. Considering she is just 2-years old and already knows how to wind up and throw the baseball, that is very impressive.
