“I didn't mean to offend anybody,” [baez] said outside of the Mets dugout. “This is something that I've done in the past against the other team. I did it in LA to the dugout. I might [have said] something wrong about how I was booing the fans, and I really meant to [say] like, ‘Boo me now' -- and not to the fans -- to our dugout because I've done it with the other team and against other teams. "I've never seen the same fans and I didn't say the fans are bad. I love the fans. But I just felt like we were alone. The fans obviously want us to win, and they pay our salary, like everybody says. But we want to win, too. The frustration got to us, and I didn't mean to offend anybody, and if I did offend anybody, we apologize.” Baez added he's “not surprised” about the social media whirlwind that has been created around the team now. He says he understands the frustration fans might have toward the initial comments, and added “other comments for my comment has been crazy.” But the Mets still have an entire month to play. And though they've created a giant hole to dig themselves out of if they wish to even sniff the postseason, Baez says the team is trying to be unified through the off-the-field issue that he created. https://sny.tv/articles/mets-javier-baez-apologizes-to-fans-for-thumbs-down-commentshttps://sny.tv/articles/mets-javier-baez-apologizes-to-fans-for-thumbs-down-comments
