How has it been 20 years already? We here at MMO will never forget all who lost their lives that day, the first responders, and all who serve to defend our freedom. We stand united in remembrance of 9/11. Here are our thoughts and memories from that day. Patrick Glynn So I was 7. Mrs. [redacted] left the room crying, and she came back in and told her third-grade class planes hit the Twin Towers. A kid, whose name I still remember to this day for this and this alone, said “Cool!” He was 7, too.

During spring training, we interviewed pitching prospect Drew Smith who was just called up by the Mets and will be making his major league debut. Here’s that interview as conducted by MMO Senior Writer Mathew Brownstein. Enjoy. When the New York Mets decided to become sellers last season, unloading many of their upcoming free agents in hopes of adding young, controllable talent, fans were hopeful that at least a few of the new names could make an impact as soon as 2018.

With the many home runs the Mets have hit in recent days, they’ve reached 113 home runs at Citi Field this year. That is a new franchise record for single season homers at home. Juan Lagares tied the record with his second home run of the day on Thursday against the Diamondbacks. The Mets didn’t take long to break it, as Tomas Nido broke the record on the very next pitch.
