The Mets are in Atlanta for their series against the Braves, but back in New York, Citi Field was literally burning.
A fire broke out Wednesday on a display case near a stadium entry gate, and it looked like a significant fire.
Thankfully, the sprinkler system did go off to put out the fire. FDNY officials told NBC 4 that nobody was hurt.
This fire happened to occur amid a tough stretch for the Mets. They’ve lost seven of their past 10 games. The Mets gave up two walk-off home runs in this series with Atlanta alone and signed Jose Bautista due to their injury situation.
With that in mind, the Citi Field fire provided fans with plenty of comedic material.
