The Marlins and Mets took the field around 7:10, with Dominic Smith and Billy Hamilton leading the way for New York.
All of the players took their positions, then removed their caps for 42 seconds of silence.
Then both teams walked off the field, leaving only a Black Lives Matter t-shirt covering home plate.
This comes one day after three MLB games and all NBA playoff games were postponed as players across sports came together to call for racial justice.

Lifelong, diehard Mets fan. Dead to me now. I even cut up my Mets koozie. FMLB and all the rest. Like I told my sister, I’m the star on my own team now!
They’re dead, Jim.
Its the same as the picture of the Mexican punk grabbing his crotch while saying FU! Makes people want to say, come on in ........ NOT!

Actually he was saluting us with his finger. Sorry. Same difference, tho.
Ditto.
Just put my Mets shirt, in my drawer, earlier, today.
Now, it will go into the trash.
Let’s DON’T meet the Mets.
:-(
You all can go pound sand.
I don't see me coming back....
Go ahead, MLB. Slit your own throats. The fans will not be coming back.
Watching sports is entertainment. Let's tell everyone we hate a select majority of fans. The ones who actually pay for box seats, branded merchandise, buy the goods we sponsor. 80% of our fan base. They can't tell us to sit on it and rotate. Right?
What a bunch of children.
I gave up baseball 20 years ago.....multi-millionaires playing a kids game whining about being mistreated topped off by said whining millionaires charging a kid $10 for an autograph at a baseball card show.
Disgusting
Its not the end of sports, its the end of professional sports. Neighborhood baseball, football and basketball games will go on. Tickets were getting too expensive and players were becoming spoiled thugs. Now they will have the time to spend time in their communities as they try to figure out what they are going to do for a living.
You hear that Base Ball worshipers. Continue kissing their ass, Worshiping them, kissing their feet, and throwing your money at them. Who hold you in the basest of contempt.
Baseball has completely jumped the shark. WTH is wrong with these athletic jackwagons? Game after game after game canceled to protest social injustice. Protest on your own damn time! Take some of those $$$$ millions you pocket with your sweet union contracts and buy an ad on the MLB network to air your grievances. Help rebuild the looted and torched businesses. For God’s sake, do something useful, you foolish bums.
hahahahaha!
They’re a joke and they’ve used up my concern.
They went too far.
f ‘em.
Just say no to these anti-American fools. Its easy once you try. Plenty of other options for your free time.
I'm in the HC Biz..and had a magic lugie hit my eye....
Just make sure you keep walking.
ESPN started it and the players finished it. Im done. There’s a lot of people hurting out there ... it makes no sense to pay grown men millions of dollars to play a childs game. I hope their salaries are slashed drastically as Americans tune them out.
Exactly.
Fu*k Em, maybe the can sell used cars.
The overpaid, pampered goons cant even articulate their grievances. Hey LeBron, how about taking a crack at defining social justice for us?
How about systemic racism ? How about total bullshit?
