The New York Mets are offering free tickets to Friday's Game 2 against the San Diego Padres to fans holding tickets from Thursday's rain-delayed outing at Citi Field. Fans waited 68 minutes between the end of the second inning and the top of the third before play resumed. The Mets announced the giveaway via Twitter.
In appreciation for fans waiting out the rain, #Mets tickets from tonight can be redeemed for complimentary tix to tomorrow night's game
