Javy Báez said the Mets' new thumbs down celebration is a response to fans booing the team.

"We're not machines, we're going to struggle. ... It just feels bad when I strikeout and I get booed. ... We're going to do the same thing to let them know how it feels," he said. pic.twitter.com/CYkHVpE2KH
