Francisco Lindor taunts A’s bullpen, Austin Adams after homer as ‘OMG’ feud escalates

Round One went to Austin Adams.
The Mets are attempting to even the score in Round Two.
A day after the Mets were angry that Adams, an A’s reliever, imitated the club’s “OMG” dance while celebrating an escape from a jam, Francisco Lindor appeared to send a message in Adams’ direction.
Lindor smacked a third-inning home run Wednesday at Citi Field — his 100th as a Met — and looked toward the visiting bullpen while approaching second base.
After the game, Lindor denied directing the motion into the opposing bullpen and said it was toward his own — but one night after the Mets were shown up by Adams, they took the field with more bounce for reasons they did not want to disclose.

An emotional pitcher on the mound, he tapped into every ounce of motivation during a strong fifth inning Tuesday, when he inherited a two-on, no-one-out jam and got out of it.
