Edwin Díaz is having one of the best seasons of his career as a closer with the New York Mets.
He earned his second All-Star nod this season — joining his impressive 2018 campaign when he was with the Seattle Mariners — and the Mets have a 4.5 game lead over the Atlanta Braves with 57 games left in the regular season. He’s worked his way into the discussion for NL Cy Young contention, and now Díaz is going add another accomplishment to the list: sharing his walk-out song with a couple getting married.
Broadcaster John Nolan, who is a Syracuse alum, took to twitter on August 5th and declared that if the tweet got 3,900 likes (a very random and specific number), his fiancée said that they could use Díaz’s walk-out song “Narco.”
Spoiler alert: Nolan got way more likes than they needed.
My fiancée says if this tweet gets 3,900 “likes” we can use @SugarDiaz39’s walk-out song (“Narco”) as our wedding reception entrance music 🎺@Blasterjaxx & @TimmyTrumpetpic.twitter.com/LC2LxxKH87

At time of publish, the tweet was up to 8,500 likes, meaning Nolan and his fiancée will be walking into their wedding reception to the dulcet tones of Blasterjaxx and Timmy Trumpet. Honestly, the song is a total banger, and it’s going to be incredible.
The lesson here: never underestimate the power of Mets fans.
