The Mets made friends with rescue puppies, and it was truly adorable

The Mets earned their third win of the season on Sunday night, defeating the Marlins, 5-2. Noah Syndergaard struck out nine over seven innings … and that's great, but it's certainly not the most important thing from the game.

What is, you may ask? Well, Sunday was the Mets' very first Bark at the Park night of the year (the second is on Sept. 4). That means puppies, and lots of them. You can watch Jerry Blevins hang out with his new furry friend in the video above, and you can say hi to these good dogs below:
