In the run-up to the Mets’ 17-6 crushing of Oakland Friday night, a possum’s presence in the visitors’ television booth forced New York’s broadcast team into an abrupt relocation.
“I came here, and I went to the booth, and people grabbed me, they almost tackled me, and pushed me into this booth,” SNY color commentator Ron Darling said.
