Those three home runs that the Puerto Rican gave Francisco Lindor to take the game away from the Yankees from New York, took effect at this point in the game.
Without that second home run of the night to take the lead against the Yankees, they could have played that wild card game at Yankee Stadium, they would not have the pressure of that Sunday on the Rays and things would have run a little more to him. your favor.
And although there are countless hits that, had they not existed, would have helped the Yankees to play that game at home, Francisco Lindor’s was one of those that hurt the most because the Mets’ offense was loaded that night, that player He disappointed many this season, but he will be remembered by Yankees fans.
Stanton himself was one of those top performers for the Yankees in the second half, with the goal of taking his team to the playoffs, he got it, but not the real goal of winning the World Series or for that matter. less, get there. However, Stanton laments not playing at home for just one more win.
How right Giancarlo Stanton is, who regretted not playing at home in the Wild Card Game for just one more win this season.

Think about it this way, Mets fans: Francisco Lindor’s third homer that Sunday night cost the Yankees one extra win, so they played tonight at Fenway instead of Yankee Stadium, so two of Giancarlo Stanton’s rockets were singles instead of homers, so now their season is over.
