Mark Vientos faced criticism from Mets manager Carlos Mendoza and teammates Francisco Lindor and Antoan Richardson after he jogged to first base on a grounder that was mishandled by the third baseman. This lapse in hustle resulted in him being thrown out at first when he could have been safe. Vientos recognized his error, expressing that he should have been sprinting from the start. Additionally, he showed frustration after a later at-bat, highlighting his competitive nature and commitment to improving.
"It's unacceptable," Vientos said Wednesday. "It won't happen again."
