Javier Baez almost has first altercation as a Met
NY Post
Javier Baez homered in his first game as a Met and he nearly had his first altercation with them in his fourth game.
After flying out to right field to end the top of the eighth inning in the Mets’ 5-4 loss to the Marlins, Baez took his helmet off and made an aggressive move toward the mound. Marlins first baseman Jesus Aguilar and a few Mets players stepped in front of Baez, who appeared to be angry with reliever Richard Bleier. “Javy is a guy that wears his emotions [on his sleeve],” manager Luis Rojas said over Zoom. “I think he heard something that was said to him, and he reacted.”
