We don’t like to rag on the Mets too often around here. In baseball, karma finds a way to bite you. But I enjoyed Ken Belson’s baseball-focused take on Black Friday. During yesterday’s crazy shopping day, the Yankee Clubhouse Store was packed while the Mets’ store further east along 42nd St. was a ghost town. As fans spent hundreds of dollars on Hideki Matsui World Series MVP gear and little on the Mets’ new throwback uniforms, Yankee fans basked in the glow of being on top. As Aoi Niwa, a Yankee fan from Portland, Oregon, said to Belson, “It’s a little pricey, but it’s worth it.”
