During a Spring Training baseball game at Clover Park in Port St. Lucie, Florida, where the Mets were facing the Nationals, a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launch became an unexpected highlight. The launch, visible from the stadium, caught the attention of both players and the SNYtv crew, who were broadcasting the Mets game last night. The event was captured live on SNY's broadcast, adding a unique backdrop to the game's proceedings. This occurrence was noted by various social media users, including a mention of a pitcher, Kristopher Sosn1, striking out a batter against the backdrop of the rocket launch. Initially, there was confusion as the Cardinals were also mentioned, but it was clarified that the game was between the Mets and the Nationals.
