NEW YORK (1010 WINS/WCBS 880) -- The Mets were back in Queens on Friday for their home opener against the Miami Marlins.
Excited fans, beaming with hope for the new season, streamed into Citi Field from the 7 train as the Amazins returned home in their white pinstripe uniforms.
Both the Mets and Marlins will go into the game 3-4 this season.
After a rough series in Milwaukee, it was a new start for the Mets at Citi Field, where there's a giant new scoreboard and menu items like a chicken sandwich from Jacobs Pickles that has glazed donuts as buns.
The home opener was originally scheduled for Thursday, but the game was postponed over a stormy forecast.
Friday's weather was chilly and breezy, but fans made do with layers of orange and blue.
Keith Raad and Pat McCarthy, who recently joined WCBS 880’s flagship coverage of the Mets with Howie Rose, were announcing their first season game from Citi Field.
Let's Go Mets!
