Did Francisco Lindor give a preview of what New York Mets players will do when they return to Citi Field on Tuesday night?
We’ll see. But on Monday, the shortstop who was part of the group of players giving thumbs down signals in response to booing fans was at the U.S. Open, where a fan shouted out to him, “Hey Frankie! Thumbs up from now on, baby. Thumbs up! No more thumbs down. Thumbs up, let’s go. Hit .320, no one will boo.”
Telling him to hit better might be oversimplifying things, but hey: Lindor responded with a thumbs up! Here’s the video:

We’ll see if that’s what we see on Tuesday night.
