Happy birthday, Tylor! 🥳

The emergence of Mark Vientos as a star this season — and especially this postseason — has been vital for the Mets’ present and future. He’s going to hit in the middle of this lineup for a long time. Huge player-development win. And a tie game in Queens.

Shane Baz: "The only reason I'm not going to talk about that play is because I will get fined” Gunnar Henderson: "I'm not gonna chase him into RF when I'm trying to turn a double play” Hunter Wendelstedt: "It was actually a very gentlemanly thing to do”

Can’t knock the effort on the dive from Melendez, but initially a 90% catch probability on this ball from Statcast. Poor read/jump but a great recovery, not necessarily “as fine a play as you’re going to see from an outfielder” as the broadcast suggests.

So much better than the sledge hammer
