The Mets were seen practicing how to celebrate winning the World Series during Spring Training

• The New York Mets simulated winning the World Series at spring training on Wednesday.
• An outfielder jumped over the fence to catch a fly ball that represented the final out of Game 7.
• Players then simulated a celebration on the mound to celebrate their imaginary championship.

The New York Mets ran a spring training "drill" on Wednesday that could indicate some hefty goals in 2021.

Players simulated recording the final out of Game 7 of the World Series and then collectively huddled on the mound to simulate a postgame champaign celebration, seen in footage recorded by Deesha Thosar of The New York Daily News.

The simulation didn't seem to include an actual ball, however, as one player simply took a practice swing at the plate while an outfielder lept over the right-field fence to mimic the action of snagging a fly ball. Players then threw their gloves in the air in celebration of their imaginary championship, shrieking in theoretical joy.

The Mets have not won the World Series since 1986, but several players on this year's team do know the feeling of playing one. The Mets won the NL pennant in 2015 en-route to World Series defeat to the Kansas City Royals four games to one. Players from that squad include pitchers Jacob DeGrom, Noah Syndergaard, Jeurys Familia, and outfielder Michael Conforto.

Meanwhile, shortstop Francisco Lindor, the Mets' big offseason trade acquisition, also knows the feeling of a World Series defeat with the Cleveland Indians in 2016.

Wednesday's simulation represents the organization's optimism for a culture change under new owner Steve Cohen, who purchased the Mets for $2.4 billion in November. In Cohen's introductory press conference, he said that he would be disappointed if the team did not win a World Series in 3-5 years.

"I don't just want to get into the playoffs. I want to win a championship," Cohen said. "I want professionalism. I want integrity. I want to hire the best and brightest. I want to develop a great farm system, develop our players. And let's not forget the fans. When they interact with me, (I want their experiences) to be extraordinary."
