NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — There were a lot of drowsy, disappointed New Yorkers on Wednesday morning after the Mets lost a heartbreaking, marathon Game 1 in the World Series.

But as CBS2’s Andrea Grymes reported, they are confident in a comeback.

It was the longest World Series opener in baseball history, finally ending in the 14th inning with Eric Hosmer’s sacrifice fly that gave the Kansas City Royals a 5-4 win. The game lasted more than five hours and ended at 1:18 a.m. Eastern time.
