The New York City mayor, Zohran Mamdani, posted "LGM" on X after the Mets beat the Twins, causing concerns among fans about the team's 12-game losing streak. The team had lost 12 consecutive games after Maddani's embrace with mascots Mr. and Mrs. Met on April 9. The curse was so prevalent that a Voodoo King attempted to undo it with black magic and a goat's head. Despite this, the team failed to break the streak before hitting unlucky No. 13 the following night.
