Young Mets fan goes viral after tearfully asking to switch to the Yankees: ‘I don’t want to be the worst’

Being a New York Mets fan has rarely been easy, and one 5-year-old from Long Island summed up the frustration in a way that resonated with baseball fans across social media. Ezra Rudansky became an internet sensation after his father, Isaac, posted a video showing the young fan in tears because he wanted to stop rooting for the Mets and become a New York Yankees supporter instead. The emotional exchange came after Ezra's older brother reminded him that, in their household, everyone roots for the Mets.
