Francisco Lindor’s family reacts after his first 2026 homer off Yoshinobu Yamamoto


The New York Mets have lost seven consecutive games, including Tuesday’s 2-1 defeat to the LA Dodgers. Francisco Lindor had a leadoff homer in the first inning, but it wasn’t enought to snap his team’s losing skid.

It was his first home run of the season. His wife, Katia Lindor, reacted to it on her Instagram story.

“Our guy 🤍,” Lindor wrote.

She screamed and cheered for her husband in the second story, and also talked about taking care of their children in another.

“Three sick kids mean I haven’t slept in 3 nights 🙂^ clearly…Brain fog 🧠🌫️ is worse than usual but anywho,” Lindor wrote.

Lindor was asked by reporters during his postgame availability about the team’s urgency to turn things around in Game 3 on Wednesday.

“The desperation level? The urgency level is really high,” Lindor said. “I don’t think no one here is desperate, but we understand we have to win. It’s a must-win. We’re not going to sit here and just say, ‘We’ll get ’em, we’ll get ’em, we’ll get ’em.’

“It’s everybody here has a sense of urgency, and we’re all trying to win. It’s just a matter of time. We have to get it done. We’re still in the middle of April, and we have the opportunity to finish the month on the positive side. Everyone here understands that the task is winning, and we’re all going for it.”

Mets owner Steve Cohen echoed Lindor’s sentiment and asked the team’s fans to “hang in there.”


Ex-MLBer blasts Francisco Lindor following Mets’ 2-1 loss

Former MLB catcher A.J. Pierzynski blasted Francisco Lindor following the New York Mets’ 2-1 loss to the LA Dodgers on Tuesday. He stressed that it was “shocking” to see the shortstop in a slump during a crucial time for his team.

“Fine, I get it, but what the heck is Francisco Lindor doing?” Pierzynski said on “Foul Territory.” “There’s been too many gaps for a guy that’s this good. He has been so good and so locked in and he’s the captain and all that.

“We’ve all made mistakes. We’ve all forgot how many outs there are. We all forgot this and that, but forgetting to turn double plays repeatedly. I don’t know. It’s just something I haven’t seen from him. So, it’s shocking.”

While New York aims to snap its losing skid, the team will have to do it by beating four-time MLB MVP Shohei Ohtani on the mound.
