Jose Iglesias performs new single for fans, team
57 minutes ago
Dan Cichalski
@NJ_baseball— New York Mets (@Mets) June 29, 2024What. A. Performance. 🤩
Jose Iglesias didn't start Friday's game for the Mets, but he started the postgame celebration and fireworks show.
Shortly after the Mets beat the Astros, 7-2, Iglesias emerged from the dugout, took a microphone and performed his new single "OMG" for the 32,465 fans in attendance. With the stadium lights shut off, Iglesias -- who released the song on Friday under his stage name, Candelita -- strolled out near second base and exhorted the fans, "New York City! Let's keep the party going!" as the song started playing on the sound system.
Backed by The Queens Crew, the Mets' dance team, Iglesias sang along with the track as his teammates watched from the first baseline. When the second chorus came around, they swarmed Iglesias on the field, shouting along and waving their hands in the air.
Originally scheduled for release in July, "OMG" dropped on streaming services earlier in the day, in part because of lobbying from veteran J.D. Martinez. The night before, Iglesias performed it at a Mets charity dinner at Citi Field.
