The New York Mets and Miami Marlins were supposed to play a game at 7:10 on Thursday night. Instead they took the field and stood together for a 42-second moment of silence out of respect for Jackie Robinson. They then exited the field with only a Black Lives Matter t-shirt draped across home plate left behind.
Michael Conforto and Dominic Smith were just some of the Mets who spoke about this after the game. Listen to here what they had to say. Also GM Brodie Van Wagenen became a story as well, as he questioned the leadership of MLB Commisioner Rob Manfred in a leaked video.
