Was that Hank Azaria in the front row of the Mets-Dodgers game? Here’s why the actor was there

Hank Azaria was sitting behind home plate for Game 5 of the Mets-Dodgers NLCS.

The stars have been at the ballpark throughout the 2024 Major League Baseball postseason, and that continued through the American League and National League respective championship series with celebrities like Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, along with Scarlett Johansson — donning a perfectly iconic and hilarious baseball cap — and Colin Jost at games.

Friday’s Game 5 of the NLCS between the New York Mets and Los Angeles Dodgers in New York featured celebrities in attendance too, including actor Hank Azaria.

Azaria — a diehard Mets fan who’s been at games throughout the postseason — was sitting in the front row at the game at Citi Field just behind the plate, and fans definitely noticed.

Prior to Friday’s game, Azaria also made a hilarious TikTok about the joys of being a Mets fan in the postseason and the pain of being a New York Jets fan at the same time.
