Francisco Lindor's wife felt “all the emotions” in the Mets' NLDS win

Katia Reguero Lindor will remember a lot from Wednesday night, but one moment from the Mets' NLDS win over the Phillies will stay with her forever.

Shortly after the Mets defeated the Phillies in Game 4, Katia reflected on husband Francisco Lindor's epic grand slam in the bottom of the sixth inning that gave the Mets a 4-1 lead that they never relinquished.

“This moment will stay in my memory forever,” Katia captioned a video on her Instagram Story that showed Lindor at the plate. “Chills. Tears. Awe. Pride. All emotions at once.”

Katia also shared a video taken outside the Mets' clubhouse at Citi Field in which she hugged Lindor, 30, as the crowd erupted in chants of “MVP.”

“This moment,” Katia captioned the video with a crying face emoji and a flaming heart animation.

Katia and Lindor, who have been married since 2021, later celebrated on the field with their two daughters.

“Scenes from this emotional day,” Katia gushed in an Instagram post. “NLCS bound!”

There were celebrations aplenty at Citi Field, especially in the champagne-soaked clubhouse that had been waiting for this milestone 15 years after the stadium opened.

Lindor, who came to New York in a trade with Cleveland three years ago, was showered with praise from his team.

“He's ready. He's a cold guy. He’s the coldest guy I’ve ever been around,” outfielder Harrison Bader said.

While the Mets will enjoy this victory lap, they know the NLCS is just one step in an improbable journey.

“I celebrate inside, but at the end of the day the work isn’t done,” Lindor said.

The Mets now await the winner of the Dodgers-Padres series, with Game 5 scheduled for Friday.

The NLCS begins on Sunday.
