The Mets may stink but Edwin Diaz’s trumpet entrance is even better with a thrilling new light show

The New York Mets are having a truly disastrous start to the 2024 MLB season, but there is also good news if you’re a fan of this team.

Despite starting off the season with four consecutive losses for the first time since 2005, among the players, the vibes are in a very good place. Perhaps a big reason why is the return of closer Edwin Diaz.

The star pitcher missed all of last season while celebrating in the World Baseball Classic, which was a heartbreaking disaster for everyone involved. Fortunately, however, Diaz has returned to the team and looks as amazing as ever.

When he entered the field for the first night game of the season in New York, fans got to watch his stunning trumpet-fueled entrance.

This past offseason, the team installed LED lights at Citi Field that have now elevated the performance to an even more exciting place than it was when we last saw Diaz enter the game.

Diaz’s entrance was already one of the best things about baseball but a good light show can make something go from good to great.

We’ve seen cool lighting at Dodger Stadium after home runs but the addition of the changing colors to the trumpet song is a one-of-a-kind experience.

If it already looks this good now, just imagine how great the vibes will feel when all of this happens for an actual save and a win for Diaz and the Mets. Goosebumps!
