New York Mets

No reaction to Yoenis Cespedes’s home run on Monday night at Citi Field could match Jerry Seinfeld’s and Chris Rock’s. They owned it.

With one swing New York Mets slugging outfielder Yoenis Cespedes brought the fans to their feet in a big way.

The cheers environment was already nuts prior to that fourth-inning blast, but his moonshot of a home run created louder cheers, crazier amazement, and even greater “we want Utley” chants.


No two fans provided better reactions than the two most famous faces in the crowd.

Check out how Jerry Seinfeld and Chris Rock reacted to the sensational blast that gave the Mets a commanding 10-3 lead in Game 3 of the NLDS.

Seinfeld, of course, is a legendary Mets fan whose obsession can be traced to the early days of Seinfeld.

Though this photo will remain a classic – as each comedian provides a contrasting style of reaction – they weren’t the only familiar face to look amazed.

Check out WFAN radio host Mike Francesa in reaction to the Cespedes bomb:

It truly an epic blast.
