Francisco Lindor and his wife, Katia, were all over the beginning of Tuesday's New York Mets game.
As part of the Mets' Hispanic Heritage Night, the club had Katia, a classically trained violinist, perform the national anthem on her violin. Holding their son, Koa, and standing with daughters Kalina and Amapola, Francisco couldn't have looked more proud.

Francisco had his own pregame moment when he was honored as the Mets' 2025 nominee for the Roberto Clemente Award, which recognizes the player who "best represents the game of Baseball through extraordinary character, community involvement, philanthropy and positive contributions, both on and off the field."
As part of the festivities, Lindor donned the No. 21 jersey in honor of Clemente, a fellow Puerto Rican. And in the second inning, he lived up to the legend with a solo homer to push his team's lead to 6-1.

As Francisco told the New York Post in 2022, Katia still practices the violin whenever she can find a chance:
"She doesn't do it like she was back in the day, when she was doing four to five hours a day … we have the baby now, but she still does two hours whenever she gets the time," he said.
The Lindors first connected when Francisco reached out to Katia on Instagram, and they got married in 2021, the year Francisco joined the Mets via a trade from Cleveland. With a 10-year contract in hand, the pair figure to be in New York for the foreseeable future.
