“A’s Just Being Babies”: Unpopular Move by Oakland Athletics Security Irks New York Mets Fans in an Instant

New York Mets just dominated the game against the Oakland Athletics. Their series opener was a thrilling game for more reasons than their 17-6 win. The Mets scored six runs on five walks and then one hit in the second inning. Not only that but three innings later, they did it again – six runs on four walks, a hit batter, and a knock. Shortstop Francisco Lindor played like a superstar, but there was one player that rather disappointed fans – Japanese sensation Kodai Senga.

The pitcher whose ghost forkballs reportedly leave batters traumatized, was off his game today. Senga is an MLB rookie this season but started off with a solid performance. In the game against the A’s, however, he allowed seven hits and even a couple of home runs. But the 30-year-old still got respect from fans who put up ghost signs to honor his classic move. However, later in the game, they were confiscated by security and Mets fans were not happy.

The New York Mets get harsh treatment from the Oakland Athletics

Since the game took place at RingCentral Coliseum, security was provided by the A’s. The ghost signs were put up by a sports illustrator and graphic designer organization called Athlete Logos. Ardent Mets fans just wanted to show support for the team and didn’t know the posters could be problematic.

Many condemned the A’s for what they called a ‘pathetic’ move.

Some made jokes at the expense of the organization’s security.

What an unfortunate situation!

Mets fans have fallen in love with Kodai Senga

The pitcher was already ultra popular in his home country of Japan with his stellar performance. His fame reached the ears of baseball fans in America and everyone wanted a piece of him when he made his MLB announcement. Luckily for Mets fans, Senga signed a 5-year contract with the Mets.

In his debut game against the Miami Marlins, he struck out 8 batters and only gave up one run. Safe to say, the Mets won. His ghost forkball is on its way to becoming the stuff of legends – Senga loved the fan-named move so much that his glove now features a blue ghost holding a pitchfork.
