The first Monday game brought the Mets in the pleasant blue home jerseys, and was a first of sorts for some things.
It was Steven Matz‘s first start of 2016, and his first April start ever in Major League Baseball. It was Yoenis Cespedes‘s first April Monday home start for the New York Mets, and also, the first time in a couple years we were treated to the Mets in their natural colors on this particular day of the week, other than the Camo-jerseys we had become familiar with seeing.
