News about Jose Iglesias

The champagne was flowing in the Mets' locker room on Wednesday night after they beat the Phillies 4-1 to advance to the National League Championship Series for the first time since 2015. After a season that began with an 0-5 start and a record 11 games under .500 in June, New York's fairytale season has raged on after they moved past Philadelphia in four games. And the ensuing celebrations afterwards were understandably wild as a raucous locker room sprayed alcohol all over - as is tradition after winning an MLB playoff series.

New York Mets star Jose Iglesias tore up the script with a different kind of double play after their win over the Houston Astros on Friday night. It is a long-running tradition for musicians to appear at Mets games and perform songs in front of the Citi Field crowd, with Timmy Trumpet and the Baha Men rather infamously doing so in previous years. However, this custom took a unique turn following a 7-2 victory against the Astros - when Iglesias went from baseball pro to pop hero by serenading the 32,465 fans still in the arena with his new song 'OMG'.
