Don’t worry, Mets fans: David Wright will always be the 1st ‘Captain America’

Hey, did you see what Team USA did to Team Canada on Monday night in the World Baseball Classic? After getting shellacked by Mexico, the boys in the red, white, and blue made sure there were bombs bursting in air in the first inning.

USA put up nine runs in that frame, which was capped by a three-run homer from Mike Trout. That was all excellent to see. What wasn’t so excellent to see — for Mets fans, at least — was how the MLB on FOX Twitter account shared that particular update:

CAPTAIN AMERICA HITS ONE OUT ud83cuddfaud83cuddf8

Mike Trout makes it 9-0 for Team USA!
