SB Nation reports:
The New York Mets are having a disastrous start to their season, but on Friday night, they came back to beat the Miami Marlins, 8-7. That called for a celebration picture on the team’s Twitter account! They chose to feature T.J. Rivera, who hit a game-tying double and a home run.
But the picture showed a giant dildo, right there in the bottom right, in his teammate Kevin Plawecki’s locker. The Mets deleted the tweet and replaced it with a zoomed-in video of Rivera to play it safe.
But of course the internet is quite unforgiving, and this morning the people called for answers. The Mets play at 7:10 p.m. ET on Saturday night, and the world will be waiting for their explanation.
As things tend to go on Twitter, the dildo already has its own account. Two of them, in fact.
Why did the mets post a pic with a massive dildo in one of the stalls? pic.twitter.com/qjDGtq3pXn

Can we all agree we need a Plawecki #RallyDong promotion? Or at least a @The7Line shirt with a nice double entendre #LGM @sschreiber13

If we win the World Series this year, I think Kevin Plawecki's dildo should get a ring#MetsTwitter
