The Mets’ run to the NLCS is filled with the unforgettable

The degree of improbability for the Mets’ unlikeliest of runs has reached the point where legacy moments — which happened just days or weeks before — already have company.

There was Francisco Lindor in the ninth inning of the doubleheader opener on Sept. 30, his two-run homer stealing a win from the Braves and clinching a spot in October in the first place. That will forever live as one of the most significant homers in franchise history.

But then there was Lindor again on Wednesday night, in the sixth, driving Carlos Estévez’s pitch 398 feet and watching it — along with a sellout crowd of 44,103 — sail over the right-center field fence at Citi Field for a grand slam that carried the Mets to a series-clinching 4-1 victory in Game 4 of the NLDS. That’s not exactly an afterthought on Lindor’s decorated résumé, either.

Somehow, this Mets run keeps reaching new ethers of crazy, of magical, of unexpected, of whatever adjective — and there are plenty — most accurately captures 13 wins since the start of their final regular-season homestand and five since the bright postseason spotlight was trained on a team that wasn’t supposed to be here at all.
