During the 7th inning stretch, the energetic Liza Minnelli sang “New York, New York” to a stadium of appreciative fans. Although the song is traditionally played at Yankee Stadium after a New York Yankees game, the Mets faithful sang along with immense pride. This time the song wasn’t associated with the cross-town Yankees. Rather, it was an uplifting homage to the entire city.
