The 15 minutes of the SNY telecast between the New York Mets and Miami Marlins was what seemed like an eternity of eerieness and suspense. It looked like a standard game, with all the players in uniform and even stretching before the 7:10 start, but things changed instantly.
Mets and Marlins had 42 seconds of silence to honor Jackie. Now the Mets have left the field.

For the time between 7:00 and 7:10, players from both teams were outside their dugouts, and some on the field performing pre-game routines.
