We would NEVER get this under the wilpons, matter of fact we would've never even been here right now. Best owners in baseball.

Very true

Amen you have spoken gospel

[@packy4445]

100 % Correct. Nice to have an owner that Truly loves his Team. Never worried during the year , he kept on telling the Media and Fans to hang in their . Thanks Steve for really caring about us Mets Fans. LGM !!!

[@SLUGGER_CITY]

One of the greatest songs ever written!!!

[@7damon8ietheredge54]

the best Motown song in my opinion

[@AuthorHamilton]

"I Was 14 Years Old When That Song Was Released In 1965 .. And It Still Sounds As Beautiful And Refreshing As It Did Some 50 Years Ago. .. I Say Thank You And GOD Bless You, To Great Temptations. .. I Feel HONORED To Walk With You Down Memory Lane" ❤

[@DVPerry220]

💡 Actually,…..next YEAR will mark the 60th anniversary of “My Girl” being released (in 1965). ❤

[@tingamastrelli9264]

I was 15 and my friends and I wanted a boy to sing it to us more than anything.

[@cynthiaowens5837]

None other like those Mighty Temptations!! Absolutely the best!!

[@wilson_zone]

I was there and caught the pre-game performance, and I loved how The Temptations sang while Lindor walked and smiled on the big screen at Citi Field. It really fit the chill vibe of that Friday afternoon. The Mets won that night and played an awesome game. It was just a perfect day!

[@christianfalconi4288]

Beautiful performance from the boys yesterday

[@djhunt-vh5ez]

Except that not one of them is an original Temptation I grew up listening to. This is blasphemy. They should not be allowed to use the name of a group that no longer includes an original member.

[@DVPerry220]

@@djhunt-vh5ezOtis Williams, the Group’s Founder (he is the tall guy with the bald pate), is STILL performing. He’s the last surviving ORIGINAL group member. ❤

This may be one of the top moments of the year!

Absolutely the best !!!! The mighty Temptations

[@andygrenn680]

Temptations are timeless…

[@susani.-partyonwithyarnandcroc]

I've been a fan of the Mets since opening day of Shea in 1964. I was there with my mom. I now work at Citifield and this brought back so many memories. My mom and dad are truly smiling from above ❤

[@metimepresents1528]

So much better than listening to so called artists today!!!! Play the oldies more!! Keeps morale and calms people in ways today's music can't. It's magical!!!!!! No body can be mad or having a bad day with real music. Watch how all those ppl young and old come together. ❤

[@craigwashington2251]

We love you Otis!

[@csaintjoy]

Amazing season 🎉

[@shave-a-thon3415]

I hope they post the version they did of the National Anthem. It was excellent. TV no longer televises this and it's a shame. We also missed Matt Harvey throwing out the first pitch to Yoenis Céspedes. They should really bill them as "The Temptation" as Otis Williams is the only surviving Temptation.

So where is the national anthem question mark

[@Dr.Les777]

One of the highlights of my life. My wife and I were vacationing in Las Vegas and watching a temptations cover group at a caberet in Harrahs. Half way through the show, the lead said that the group was looking for a sixth guy to join the group. He pointed at me, a short white guy, and without blinking an eye, I jumped on stage. He handed me a microphone and we did our moves and sang My Girl. The audience went wild. A once in a lifetime moment

[@cb145]

That's not the temptations

[@spotalarm1068]

Otis is the only surviving member so they have to fill in because it is a band of 5

[@chrismoore902]

So it's not the original s but it's cool anyway and remember it's the music we love

[@Radents_TWO]

The original members passed except for one who is still active in the group.

[@nickstoli]

I say this as a Dodgers fan, this is awesome! Still wish you guys lost, though.

[@HectorMartinez-jt7ik]

I miss the original temptations. What a scam

[@stephenciccone1739]

I am a die hard Met fan. Live and die with every pitch. Idk who the fuck would want this before an NLCS game lmao. Who gives a fuck can we win a World Series?

[@ralelunar]

Sports are entertainment, quit being a crybaby

[@NandoVelasquez]

If they will bring the Temptations for the NLCS, imagine what they could do for the WS. If they win, they will only go up from here. You gotta believe!

I want it, is there a problem?
